Without ads, this site, as well as others like Digg, Facebook, Google, various blogs, and the ever popular cheezburger sites like LOLCats would die.
The bill Rick Boucher is attempting to pass would make it nearly impossible to advertise on websites by making people agree to an agreement before they are advertised to. They don't have to do this with radio, print, or television ads, so why should we have to do it online?
Hindering this would kill the internet as we know it. Please read up on the issue, and sign the petition.

Using 2.6.31-zen2 with the BTRFS filesystem, as well as running without an initrd and having all of my modules compiled in with a kernel size of 630kb uncompressed, I can say my machine is good in latency, speed, and efficiency...
It's an HP DV9205US, and if you'd like to see my .config sometime (it works on many different HP laptops, though you may have to tweak it or use different drivers), and produces a beauty of a kernel.
Here's my bootchart:

WOOTOFF!
Ever since woot changed their design, my script has been broken. Since we have a wootoff going on now, I've refined and updated it so that once more it works.
I've removed a feature in the public version that runs your browser of choice with the buy now link in order to quash the competition, and so that you can learn a little bit if you desire this feature...add it yourself! It's just one line of code.
To use this, you need a UNIX style shellscript interpreter, sed, grep, curl, and play, though you could use any equivalent program for these to mod the script to work on other OS'es than Mac and Linux.
Download by clicking here, and see the below for the code, should you want to look it over.
#!/bin/bash
#Wootwatch Alarm v0.02
#Written by Matt Parnell/ilikenwf http://www.mattparnell.com
#This is totally free, take it and mod it however you wish, under the GNU GPLv3.
#This script goes every 3 sec to woot and checks for a bag of crap. If found, it sounds an alarm.
