Block Javascript For A Single Site in Google Chrome

Most browsers allow you to disable javascript in their Settings page, but doing so will not give you a good browsing experience as most sites require javascript to function properly. Wouldn’t it be good if you can block javascript only for a specific site/page? Google Chrome comes with a native feature that allows you to block javascript for sites that follow a specific pattern.

1. In Google Chrome, go to its Settings page.

2. Scroll all the way down to the bottom and click “Advanced Settings”. Under the Privacy section, click “Content Settings”.

3. Under the Javascript section, click “Manage exceptions”. Now you can enter the site’s URL that you want to block javascript and select “Block” under the Behavior selection.

Click Done. That’s it. Javascript will now be blocked on the site(s) that you added in the list.

A species of jellyfish called Turritopsis dohrnii can revert its adult cells back to a juvenile polyp stage when injured or starving, effectively restarting its life cycle, and biologists have so far failed to identify any natural limit to how many times it can do this.
A Japanese man named Jiroemon Kimura, who lived to 116, was born in 1897 when Queen Victoria still ruled and died in 2013, meaning a single human life personally overlapped with the invention of the airplane, the atomic bomb, the internet, and Instagram
The Hollywood sign originally read HOLLYWOODLAND when it was built in 1923 as a real estate advertisement for a housing development, and it was only meant to stand for 18 months, but nobody ever got around to taking it down and the city eventually adopted it as a landmark
Almost all of the world’s internet traffic does not travel by satellite but through fibre-optic cables lying on the ocean floor, a hidden web of wires crossing the deepest parts of the sea to connect the continents.
