Yes, but I have JS disabled on most sites. Regarding adblock, there were posts that it slows the browser down, injects huge CSS rules into every iframe etc.

How do you selectively disable has without an extension?

Chromium can do that. You can disable JS globally in the settings and then there will be a script icon in the address bar to enable it on a specific site.
