The shadows under the screens look photoshoped also with the high gloss finish the warehouse lighting would have been obvious on the video. You can actually see the starlink satellites at night with a naked eye why is it so surprising that he spent the money to launch the thing? Consider it an advertising expense, it is doing double duty for space x and tesla, they will charge 90M USD for a FALCON 9 heavy rocket launch, he got it at cost. For context GM spent 3.25B on advertising in 2022; tesla is much smaller but most AAA games and major film releases spend more than 200 million for one product launch. The accounting is sound and it can be free advertising for a long time. It is doing a series of close passes between planets it will be back near earth in about 23 years marking the roadster's 25th anniversary iirc. I suppose the space is fake and gay crowd are gonna get wiped out when we start mining asteroids for precious metals sometime in the next 10 years and their gold or silves portfolios start to stink.
