Don't Forget DHCP

When it comes to managing IP addresses, few of us would forget to track the IPs we assign manually to our WAN interfaces, servers, switches, and etc. However, once we decide to assign a DHCP scope to a subnet we tend to "set it and forget it". In many cases, this is a big mistake.

And Ubuntu has an 'encrypt home directory' option, perhaps google should follow suit.
