Re:Atuin – Magical Shell History on Friday February 23, 2024 @09:27AM (#39480939)
I've been using a combination of git (append only when merging) and systemd for that for a long time now, my history file is 70k lines now and still works like a charm.

I wonder however how people can spend a lot of time in the shell and have no sync process at all in their shell history.

Actually the said car has a continuous internet connection, using a sim card, so I guess syncing time wouldn't be that difficult.

Also I remember some Renault Espace in France which had a dongle but then you had to put it somewhere specifically in the car to start it. Adding an NFC/RFID chip could solve part of the problem maybe...

But yes you are right this require maintenance.

So today my car got stolen in front of my house. It was a 2021's Hyundai Tucson.We clearly see on some cameras in the street that it took less than 1 minute for the thief to take it.I was not aware that the "replay" attack (as I understand consists simply in listening to my keys signal through my door and replicating it to open and start the car), so my key was not far at all.So my question is,...
