I’ll be careful, I promise!
The first time a Firefox user attempts to use the about:config
portal to modify the many, many options the Firefox developers are too lazy and loathe to provide GUI controls, the user sees a warning page.
“This might void your warranty!”
What warranty? Who are the Firefox developers trying to kid? The software is distributed specifically without warranty.
Rather than a traditional adult OK button, the user must select a button that says,
“I’ll be careful, I promise!”
What a childish, condescending attitude the Firefox developers have toward users.
