Doesn't that require medication?

Hmmm, my cache edit of some php files broke the site. Back to the drawing board!

I don't think this author likes me very much, but I had to laugh at this one he he.

Jon, I think you need a PHP expert. do you need help with editing the source files? If that's what you plan on doing, why don't you post questions on the 2 main PHP forums?

 

[Jon]

It is more about (probably) server configuration, of which I am not an expert either.

 

[vba_php]

do you know where to go for that? I can suggest a few more than likely. you are running an apache machine right?

 

[Jon]

Litespeed. I have several posts waiting for answers.

Adam, it wasn't long ago you said you were going to bed. How much sleep do you actually need??!

actually Jon, that's an interesting issue. I don't need much sleep, nor do I need to eat very much everyday. It is a couple of gifts from the holy spirit that have been given at 2 different times....once in 2013 and now again starting 6 months ago. But you science-minded folks probably call that rubbish. this will surely make richard angry too. there are also plenty of other things going on regarding my spiritual life, but those are only told at confessions and to the monks I trust. The entire story is quite bizarre, but whatever is going on, I am using it to do good in the world and help the poor and needy people. and like I said in that PM to you, when my website is finished I'll send you the link to it so you can see how that is going to help people like you out greatly as well.

So on a typical night, what do you need? Five hours?

 

[vba_php]

I generally get only 2-3 hours, and it is broken between 2 to 3 stint of short sleeps.

I just did and now my old avatar is showing.

@vba_php That's impossible! I had a couple of friends who only needed 4 hours per night. It is such a competitive advantage, giving you tons of time to do stuff. Do you mean you do 3 sleeps of 1 hour each time?

@moke123 Did you expect your old avatar to show? Is that what you wanted?

 

[moke123]

no.
in fact the new one shows in my profile but the old one shows in the forums.

 

[NauticalGent]

I just did and now my old avatar is showing.

I have always preferred Indian over HD. One day I might own one!

@moke123 Are you using Chrome? Go to this thread, open develop console, right mouse click on reload, choose Empty cache and hard reload. It sets the avatar in the thread to the same as your profile.

actually no it's not impossible, Jon. If you read the story about Padre Pio over in Italy, he went through something similar where he needed almost no sleep and would constantly be awake through the night (doing what, I have no idea). but it was during those hours that Satan tried to play his tricks on him, but failed because the man was highly educated in spiritual matters. He was also well known for going days on no nourishment other than the eucharist. but that man was the most righteous monestary dweller in history. as far as the number of sleeps I go through, it varies. sometimes 3 times, 1 hour each, sometimes 3 hours in one stint. sometimes i'll take 15 min naps throughout the day, etc...but i won't be able to do this forever you know....

 

[Jon]

There is that sleep 4 hours wake 4 hours thing that some people do. Apparently, it drives them nuts!

@Jon For the past 13 years, I work 21 hours a day and sleep only 3 hours. I work at two companies from 8AM to 3AM. I normally go to bed at 3:30AM and wake up at 6:00.
I have to pay for my son's university and this life style will continue another year when he's graduated with PHD in physics.

It only gives me tons of time to work harder

it is well known, the claim that as we age, we need less sleep. oh my! I hope your son doesn't over think the world's problems like so many researchers do!

 

[Jon]

@Tera That is incredible! I wish I could do that. I need 8 hours per night and an extra half hour to get to sleep! You have 5 hours per day more waking time than me.
