each kompute session i boot from a clean disk with persistence partition. this means, the entire system is ephemeral with the tree being held in tmpfs partition and /home/$(whoami)/ being persisted in encrypted btrfs volume.

this makes for a good system with a lemon scent that each time you boot it builds the entire thing.

but as with all tools there are sharp edges. if you don't remember to add a path to the persistence volume you will lose data. while most userspace programs live in the aforementioned directory along with their config-set, sometimes you have some software that does not. i ran into that.
