Comment on Policy of Transience

Comments

The policy results in a lot of wasted effort and inefficiency.

Even secure systems like Tails have an option for persistence for that very reason.

Lack of session management is in fact annoying in the OSes, X11 protocol is generally unsupported anyway.

True persistence, however, is indeed in storing the scripts and advanced things in a backup archive, properly labelled. Sadly there is no good site to share these to reduce the unneeded effort.

Distributed archive, for that matter.
