🟢 That green light glowing in the dark is a mesh radio, GPS receiver, AI assistant, and emergency communications terminal — all running on battery inside a weatherproof aluminum box I built from scratch.
Meet the Cochrane Device — S/N 001.
After Hurricane Maria knocked out communications across Puerto Rico for months, I wanted a way to keep my family connected when everything fails. No cell towers. No internet. No power grid.
So I built one.
📦 Inside the IP66 aluminum enclosure:
→ Meshtastic LoRa mesh radio — encrypted, 15km range per hop
→ GPS with 3D fix in 18 seconds
→ WiFi hotspot so your phone becomes a node
→ Linux computer running full service stack
→ AI assistant that writes scripts on demand in the field
→ Remote access via Tailscale from anywhere on earth
→ 6-8 hours battery, solar chargeable
This is S/N 001 — the prototype. Every lesson learned here makes the next one better.

I've been running #Tumpa CLI for a while on a few selected git repositories, where I use #yubikey for the #PGP key storage.
Today I have globally replaced gpg2 with tcli and tglig in the git config. It does the job very well and is far less annoying than gpg ever was. The tcli agent is also much more nicely behaving than the gpg-agent.
Thank you, @kushal for an excellent work on Tumpa!
And I'm even more impressed that Tumpa even handles multiple Yubikeys plugged in in parallel. It selects the right key for the right identity and the tcli agent even caches the needed passphrase/PIN as expected. This is something which was a complete mess with GnuPG.

@ZBennoui @kellylford @matt The big thing is that for decades, we've essentially been the beggars, not the choosers. Even in #openSource, often when you ask for an #accessibility enhancement you either get a "no, too hard" or "submit PR and then maybe lmao". With that pushback it makes sense that people have decided they've had enough of not being considered important enough and just making a tool yourself. Even well-established projects like #microsoft #windows, #apple #MacOS etc. have been steadily backsliding over the last decade so what's a person to do?
It absolutely means there's likely a lot of tools out there that may very well be doing things insecurely or inefficiently, and the developer might not even know. So now it becomes a responsibility question: do we blame the dev, who isn't a dev, for doing dev wrong, or the user for trusting what they feel is now their only/best option? THis is where accessibility negligence has taken us.
