ABOUT

about:config settings to harden the Firefox browser. Privacy and performance enhancements.
To change these settings type 'about:config' in the url bar. Then search the setting you would like to change and modify the value. Some settings may break certain websites from functioning and rendering normally. Some settings may also make firefox unstable. I am not liable for any damages/loss of data.

Not all these changes are necessary and will be dependent upon your usage and hardware. Do some research on settings if you don't understand what they do. These settings are best combined with your standard privacy extensions (~~HTTPS Everywhere~~ No longer required: Enable HTTPS-Only Mode, NoScript/Request Policy, uBlock origin, agent spoofing, ~~Privacy Badger~~ etc), and all plugins set to "Ask To Activate".

Handy helpers for controlling visibility of elements until Vue has compiled.

Use like:

<div v-cloak>
  <h1>
    <span class="v-cloak--inline">Loading...</span> <!-- Only displayed before compiling -->
    <span class="v-cloak--hidden">{{ post.title }}</span> <!-- Hidden until compiling is finished -->

NOTE: Some recent, major refactoring has made some sections of this document inaccurate. It will be updated soon.

}

video /deep/ input[type=range] {

Google Chrome Developers says:

The new WOFF 2.0 Web Font compression format offers a 30% average gain over WOFF 1.0 (up to 50%+ in some cases). WOFF 2.0 is available since Chrome 36 and Opera 23.

	Quick tip for handling CSRF Token Expiration - common issue is when you use csrf protection is that if
	a form sits there for a while (like a login form, but any the same) the csrf token in the form will
	expire & throw a strange error.

	Handling it is simple, and is a good lesson for dealing with other types of errors in a custom manner.

	In Middleware you will see a file VerifyCsrfToken.php and be tempted to handle things there. DON'T!
	Instead, look at your app/Exceptions/Handler.php, at the render($request, Exception $e) function.

	All of your exceptions go through here, unless you have excluded them in the $dontReport array at the
