I can't even comment on github anymore because every time I press 'm'
the markdown cheat-sheet window appears, and if I press 's' the search
box is selected even though I've got the comment box selected and can
type other keys. I hate these damn "smart" websites that hijack my
keyboard. And yeah, I've reported this to them, waiting for them to
contact me back..

Problems like that are easily fixed on websites where JS is merely
optional. ;)

"JS...off...problem solved!" <-- Makes the majority of the web 100x
more pleasant.

Good tip! In fact, I wonder if I can find a plugin for Firefox that
disables JS on specific websites. You don't happen to know of such a
thing? :)

Looks like I've found something:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/yesscript/

Seems to work, yay! I'm a happy-puppy again.

You can do that with NoScript, too, and NoScript also has a bunch of
other features.

I'm using NoScript and whitelisting the sites I need to use which requires JavaScript. JavaScript  is block  by default for the rest of the sites. I can always at any time temporarily allow JavaScript on a given site if I need to.
