There's a tiny little + by the "Requests Blocked" label on the Button panel. Click that.

Then red the left side of the top five boxes (images and scripts and the like).

If I understand correctly, it's not really a mode, it's just several broad filters. 0.8.5.7 on Firefox doesn't have an 'all' that I can see.

Oh, I see. I was under the assumption that these settings were still site specific, got it, thanks!

Edit: Would be nice to be able to set those global settings once and not have them pop up on every page. And/or have a visual distinction between global and site specific rules, right now there is no option to globally disable images and then whitelist on a per site basis, right? I can just whitelist a domain which will then load everything?

My initial impression wasthat I could globally blacklist everything I don't want per default and then enable it on a (sub)domain basis.

I'll certainly give this a shot though. My firefox is really slow with ~20ish addons.

Yes you can, it's in the quick guide[1]:

If you go into the settings and look at "My Rules", you can get a pretty good sense of the scope of the rules you have running.

I don't know if uBlock works the same way RequestPolicy does, but RP is not a replacement for NoScript. You may want to load images from a host but not allow that host to run Javascript or Flash: https://www.requestpolicy.com/faq.html#faq-noscript
