Same with chrome ;) Hmm, that screenshot is from 2007. Can't find the option on the current version of Firefox. Tools -> Options -> Security -> Saved Passwords -> Show passwords

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Gotta move into it - start doing skype calls first, then video chats, try hanging out with her as well, eventually you'll get the hang of it.

Buying and parking domains?
If he has a legitimate claim to it, yes. He's domain squatting...if he has no legitimate claim to it then you can take him to court.

Type TIF with your forehead
Can I use my nose? ticcdcf Dammit, got the first two right and was so happy :(

Buying and parking domains?
In general most domain names will be the same except for the level (.com most expensive). You can by domains many places, check ICANN for more info. I hope you're not considering domain squatting though.....as that is frowned upon and doesn't work much anyway.

Tip.It 2010 Clan Awards Results
So the images are pretty useless. Cool I guess. No, not at all - using multiple ones may stretch the boundaries but you can use at least one easily :) Thanks Jack and Pieter for putting this together, really nice to see non-staff taking initiative in this way. Congrats to everyone who won!

I wouldn't say what her family does is completely irrelevant. If she's a heavy drinker, and that bugs you, that's a no then. Otherwise, it's up to you..

Yeah I'd much rather see Aulie or Holzer on D than him.

Things that annoy the HELL out of you.
What Nick said. Overall, I feel 3d detracts from most movies...I like animated movies in 3d but I've never seen a serious movie in 3d, nor do I want to.

Some Forum Updates
I don't see any problem with the colour for administrator - in fact as it's been that way for most of tip.it's existence I doubt it will change. As far as the side bar, it could be changed, depends what the admins think.

The Obligatory Ice Hockey Thread
Indeed...I saw the leafs blow a three goal lead and thought "two days in a row? facepalm"...but we won in a shootout so I'm happy :D

The official World of Warcraft thread.
The point of it isn't to gain mana, it's to make them lose it. edit: patch notes up for 4.0.6. Glad I'm rolling a DK, locks are actually getting nerfed >.> Omg they nerfed my curse of exhaustion? Noooooo Lame. At least the pally nerfs didn't change much.

In real life, yes. On the internet, no. I agree with Mask though - they're both too loud. I tend to think of it as a loud hypocrite versus quiet yet smug [wagon]. Though to be fair most people on both sides aren't like that. Just the ones that get any attention. So true. Democrats can be just as loud and ridiculous as republicans.

From Flab to Abs.
Im trying to stay lean, not turn into Arnie. high rep, low weight workouts will tone, not bulk up muscles to huge proportions. While what Tim posted is a little low it's not that far off. For the one hundred millionth time, toning is a myth. Lifting weight builds muscles. Trimming fat makes them show. If you lift weight that isn't challenging, your muscles won't change. By the way, you can do hundreds of situps a day, but all it will do is make you look fat if you haven't cut down excess fat. If all you want to do is see your abs, and you don't particularly want to gain strength, do minimal ab exercises and focus on cardio/good diet.

A tiger and some muscles
Like the muscles...the tiger looks slightly lopsided but definitely still good :thumbup:

@Zierro: Like you said, statistics can prove anything. Here are some more: http://filipspagnoli.wordpress.com/stats-on-human-rights/statistics-on-capital-punishment/ And here: http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/documents/FactSheet.pdf Specifically and My arguments against CP are several. Firstly, we need to talk about punishment. What is more of a punishment? I suppose it really depends on the person, as some people are certainly so afraid of death that they see it as the worst thing that can possibly happen - but myself (like many) I'd much rather be put to death than spend my entire life in the hell that is prison. Secondly, wrongful conviction. As bad as prison may be - when someone is wrongfully convicted and sentenced to death, once the sentence is carried out, there's no going back. There's no way the government can make amends for what they've done to that person, to their family and friends, and more. Wrongful convictions make people lose faith in the justice system, especially so when capital punishment is involved. Info here: http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/causes-wrongful-convictions. 86 people were on death row but had their convictions overturned. 86 people who's lives would have been ended, for nothing. That's not even including the people who actually did have their lives ended for nothing. Thirdly: What is more in the public interest? In fact, at this point I'd have to say my objection(to CP) is not even 100% - I believe capital punishment is necessarily and acceptable when it really serves the public's best interests. When does it serve the public's best interests? When someone poses a real, certain threat to the safety of others in their place of incarceration. Until then, society is far better off attempting to rehabilitate. I don't mean to say universal rehabilitation is achievable, but it (partial rehab) should be tried. Some criminals cannot be reformed - but if we can reform others, why shouldn't we? It has been, and with some success (see european countries). Someone made a point above that "if you don't want to see your families murderer die, you're lying". I think it's true in the sense that you have that emotional, instinctive desire to exact revenge - yet I've never met anyone who says revenge has truly made them happy. If someone killed my family...I'd want them to pay. I'd want them to spend their life in jail. But if, by the end, they could be rehabilitated to actually be a functioning member of society, able to teach others about the consequences of their actions, then yes, I'd prefer that (and I know my family would as well).

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
For the first and fourth reason alone, I think you should break up with her, or at least talk to her. The middle 3 sort of just add on to it. The first one is enough for me lol. Seems pretty obvious you should end it, doesn't sound like she respects you at all.

Is there a glyph for it? It seems like every time I use it I use more mana than I gain...

The Obligatory Ice Hockey Thread
I think it was russia's second goal that killed them - that was a total collapse of all positions and they never really got it back after that..just lost their confidence.
