That is literally what we do at my job.
Three copies: One for the client who paid for it, one for us (internal processing and testing only), and one as a backup goes to a storage location that is a converted cold war era bomb shelter.

We spent several hundreds of thousands of dollars last year doing geophysical processing in azure. But it was an emergency: It was a hot fix to avoid losing out on hundred times that amount. Turned out the contract negotiator never bothered telling operations that they agreed to deliver the data with some processing already applied.
We considered building a processing cluster on site, but buying the necessary hardware and shipping it halfway around the world in a timely manner would've been even more costly. Plus I would be the one who had to build the rig, and I was all tied up on a different project a few countries over at that time.
I'm the only one in my friend group who plays factorio. But that's their loss.
On-prem still has its uses
Platter harddrives are still useful
Tapes and tapedrives aren't obsolete
Got my bathroom redone last year. Guess which color, lol.
Faucet, sink, tub, shitter, and shower head are all matte black.
To my defense the floor is dark grey and the walls are medium grey. I don't want it to look like a cheap "fancy" hotel with the white/black contrast I see everywhere.
I guess it varies between airlines. I said adult because that's what my usual airline says when I reserve an exit row seat online. But I don't see a reason why the average 15 year old wouldn't be able to do it.
My hardware is. But I suspect the linux support is lacking in MSFS24.
Amount of international flights I've been on so far this year: 20ish, I think
Amount if times someone cared about my signature: 0
Only time there has been extra hazzle was when the airline questioned my C1/D visa as I didn't work for an airline. Took them a while to realize that ships also travel internationally.
Oh, and there was this time I had one of those DE9-RJ45 console cables in my backpack, and I had to explain what it was for during a routine inspection.
Unless the emergency exit is manned by the crew, they need a passenger there who can open the hatch if needed.
Normally this isn't a problem, as someone usually prefers that seat due to the extra legroom. If there aren't many passengers on the flight, and nobody has booked that seat in advance they might assign that seat early in the process so that someone who isn't fit to sit there can have someone else take their place.
A few times, on smaller flights with free seating, I've been asked if I can man the emergency exit. I normally sit far forward on these flights, but I don't care hard enough, so I'm happy to oblige.
As for who can sit there, it's not a particularly high bar: any adult who is reasonably fit who is comfortable with being responsible for the emergency exit.

Correct. Voting will.

Saved you a click: maybe. Many podiatrist think so. They're OK occasionally, but not for everyday use.
Same problem here, but with "Yosemite". As a scandinavian I have no basis for hearing it spoken, so in my head I pronounced it as if it was a very street way of greeting Jewish people.
