Elon Musk streamed himself playing Path of Exile 2 on a private jet to show off the capabilities of Starlink, but it didn’t go as planned. Not only was he brutally mocked by a troll, his crappy Starlink connection led to significant lag. On top of that, gamers like Quin69TV—who sounded the alarm about Musk paying people to boost his PoE 2 account—tuned in to Musk’s stream to poke fun at rookie mistakes he was still making. In this video we’ll discuss Musk’s stream and talk about how gamers are reacting to Trump’s tariffs, which is impacting the release of the Nintendo Switch 2.
