If you view this page (https) https://www.livegeekordie.com/article/nintendos-super-smashing-sale-week-4/ it has a different font than the one at (http) http://www.livegeekordie.com/article/nintendos-super-smashing-sale-week-4/

I personally prefer the http one but is it a CSS issue I'm guessing?

If you click the link make sure you put https:// in front as I think it defaults to http://

Correct, the CSS and potentially JS won't load over https. While it's a poor design, the https links aren't actually intended to be shared with anyone. We're using https purely to protect user credentials.

In addition to the dependencies not loading over HTTPS, browsing the site also skips our caching layer. Another reason why these links should not be shared out through facebook or what have you.

I may be able to build some logic that only allows logged in users to browse over https, and will redirect others to an http version of the page if available.
