That's a feature supporters of imperial thinks it has. Even if imperial/some special third option is better for guessing, the difference has to be big enough that it's worth the hassle of having multiple systems or converting everyone again. If it's not worth having two systems but it is worth converting everything , then you still have to keep or prove that it's worth losing the conveniences of metric like 1 km = 1000 m , 1 L of water weighing 1 kg , water freezing and boiling at 0 and 100 °C

It's going to have some metadata to that effect yes, like a file index or number of parts or total extracted file size. I don't know the details, I've used them I haven't read the spec. rar is Rarlab's proprietary format so there might not even be a public spec.
They're normally all the same size except for the last part, so it's not that file 1 is just an index.

My homeserver runs Debian with Freedombox, and I'm using their GnuDIP ddns service, but it's for free subdomains, not your own.

I used to have a script to update my own domain in Gandi console. I only stopped because I didn't really need a domain for my home.

Yes multiple gas stations, car washes, tankers, and as a sponsor for Ferrari race cars. Similar deals with Exxon and Esso.
Since the 90s it's all their fictional Octan brand instead

Well it's not the very rich, they're not paying inheritance tax either way.

Not sure I understand how the brackets are a good stand-in for recursion like a subclause in a sentence.

If they are recognising symmetry visually, that's still a skill but feels like an entirely different concept to me.

From all the news and jokes I thought it was at least serious (like the Love Parade crush, or the storm at Pukkelpop) But it was just muddy?
