+As the world turns more and more towards 'default dumb user' in every application, some changes are needed to make it fit nerds. As I kept on forgetting which values to change when installing new machines, I've decided to write them down:
-browser.urlbar.autoFill -> FALSE - Effect: Firefox does not autocomplete url's (e.g. 192.168.5.1 makes Firefox autofill 192.168.5.108. Pretty annoying! I'm not a dumb user, Firefox, I KNOW what I'm typing. I didn't mean ".108" when I wrote ".1" and pressed enter. I meant ".1", nothing else. Don't correct it. Me master, you machine)
-browser.urlbar.trimURLs -> FALSE - Effect: Shows current protocol in URL bar. When enabled it removes the protocol definition (http://, ftp://, https:// etc.). Am I using FTP, HTTP, HTTPS? I don't know, because Firefox removed it! Goddamn Chrome-wannabe-behaviour)
-dom.disable_window_move_resize -> TRUE - Effect: Disallows javascript to resize browser windows. I KNOW my window size, and that is the size I want it. Don't fuck with it. Me master, you machine.
-dom.event.contextmenu.enabled -> FALSE - Effect: Disallows javascript to remove the top menu, disable rightclicking etc.
+^Item ^Value ^Effect^
+|browser.urlbar.autoFill|FALSE| Disables autocomplete of url's (e.g. 192.168.5.1 makes Firefox autofill 192.168.5.108. Pretty annoying!)|
+|browser.urlbar.trimURLs|FALSE| Shows current protocol in URL bar. When enabled it removes the protocol definition. Am I using FTP, HTTP, HTTPS? I don't know, because Firefox removed it!|
+|dom.disable_window_move_resize|TRUE| Disallows javascript to resize browser windows. I KNOW my window size, and that is the size I want it. Don't mess with it. Me master, you machine.|
+|dom.event.contextmenu.enabled|FALSE| Disallows javascript to remove the top menu, disable rightclicking etc.|
+|browser.backspace_action|0| Enables press of the backspace-button to go back one page.|
+|browser.showQuitWarning|TRUE| Activates a prompt asking to save tabs or not when exiting Firefox. This is nice when accidentally hitting CTRL+Q instead of CTRL+W.|
+|geo.enabled|FALSE| Disables geo-location feature. I know where I am. Services do not need that info. If they do, I'll enter it for them manually.|
+|<del>browser.tabs.onTop</del>|FALSE| Puts tabs below the menu - **After FF29, [[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/]] 'Classic Theme Restorer' is needed to move tabs below the menu**|
+|browser.newtab.url|about:blank| Removes the Firefox "tiles page" when opening a new tab. Instead displays 'about:blank' (blank/empty page).|
