What makes the photo better is the beautiful steak sitting right in front of him, as the creator shows off his lavish lifestyle. But how did Tfue get a win at such a high elevation? Surely, he was not using the plane’s wi-fi, right?

Starlink has been known to provide people with decent internet while being in the middle of nowhere, but I am not sure anyone would expect it to allow someone to play competitive video games online while on an airplane.
