I take it that $HOME is mounted from WAN on your systems. In that case
the easy solution is to change $HOME: If you cannot rely on $HOME
change it to a dir that you _can_ rely on.
Letting ~/.parallel/tmp point to $TMPDIR defeats the purpose of having
a file system that is assumed to be shared across systems.
mkdir /tmp/jwells
HOME=/tmp/jwells parallel echo ::: 1
