There's some extreme mental defects that go on while you are awake. Again, watch the video.

i dont need to watch anything :P im fine thats all ineed to know. so for whatever reason you have someting against this. maybe u cant stay awake for that long and feel that you have to fistfight others who can or what. but never the less there are no documentation of illnes from not sleeping. and if there is its not trustworthy otherwise id be fucked up :P

Hello everyone!

 

As far as you hopefully know, Luke Lafreniere ( aka. Slick) is under terrible working conditions.

 

§1 Irregular work hours [He has to benchmark GPU:s night time ( don't know it this will ever happen, they talked about it on the WAN show once)]

§2 He probably gets fired multiple times a day. [ Rehired always though]

§3 He never gets to sleep [ As you can see here -> http://youtu.be/RNrjG729SQw?t=6m12s ( Start looking from 6:12) 

     If you simply cant notice he look sooo sleepy! I bet he fell asleep right after the filming of the video :P

     And that is just one example, i'm sure if you have watched the Linustechtips videos for a while slick is always really tired :(

 

We should together as members of the Linustechtips forum take action and get slick a better working conditions and environment, (and better job security) etc. !

 

 

Your picture makes this post so ironic. :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

this isnt true :P, its even been done extensive medical experiments and documentation that sleep is not needed,

you can be awake for 300 hours and your body will still be in perfect health both psychological and fysiological :)

Did you read the health effects in the page YOU linked?!

 

 "Lt. Cmdr. John J. Ross, who monitored his health, reported serious incognitive and behavioral changes. These included moodiness, problems with concentration and short term memory, paranoia, and hallucinations. On the fourth day he had a delusion that he was Paul Lowe winning the Rose Bowl, and that a street sign was a person. On the eleventh day, when he was asked to subtract seven repeatedly, starting with 100, he stopped at 65. When asked why he had stopped, he replied that he had forgotten what he was doing."

well they are going batshit crazy pretty offen haha. but no, im pretty sure he is old enought to know when to tell linus that he needs to sleep :)

besides if it would be anywhere near unsafe im pretty sure linus is smart enough to tell slick to go to bed ? hmm

How about going into cardiac arrest from sheer exhaustion? N.T, we dont just sleep for the physical body, but for our minds. It removes toxins and sleeping gives the brain the means that it needs to sort itself out. Kind of like rearranging paperwork for the next day. Just looking out for your health man, thats all.

im fine thanks :) but yeah sure sleep is needed. but not each night. im just sayin. dont make a war out of it xD

How can LMG be profitable unless Slick is Linus' minion 24/7 at his beck and call? 

 

Just joking. 

But Slick does seem tired, and I think you should get some sleep.

The video has scientific proof of what happens each day that you don't sleep. Stop being so ignorant and watch the video. You will realize that you're wrong.

It is never the bosses fault if the employee stays up all night gaming rather than sleeping.  Slick does not need to be "given" more sleep, he may need more sleep.  Honestly, he did look a little tired in the phone video today, but I feel that is more to do with Slick than Linus. Slick needs to realize that part of his job is to look good. He is in the public eye enough as part of his job that is is bordering on unprofessional to look tired and wrecked.  Maybe that means he needs more sleep, maybe it means he needs to do a facial each morning, and steal some women's beauty secrets to use in the morning.  Either are fine.  If beauty queens can look pretty after jet leg, Slick can look pretty after playing all night. . . you just have to put in the time and effort to make yourself pretty and hide the tired.

 

Linus always looks good, and he has a kid, maybe we need a "Linus Beauty Tips for Men" channel.  He can experiment with beauty techniques for men on Slick!

I never said you would die, eventually you would, if you stayed up longer. Just watch the video and you will find out what happens each day of sleep that you miss.

those styles of research is often skewed, and don't take into factor the unique biochemistries of different people.

I've stayed awake for 107 hours (4 and a half days) without any behavioural differences or adverse affects. these type of science reports are never 100%

I have to say this is kind of self inflicted. There was the time last weekend when he was up all night...must have been like 6am his time when I went to bed.

I went to bed at 2 or 3am NZ time and he was still up.

That's so wrong. You can't be operate normally if you not sleeping for 300 hours, the guy who stayed awake for 200 hours was never the same, he had had temper, angry and opposite of what he was before.

Go watch ASAP Science: What if you stopped sleeping.

You would only suffer mood changes while the sleep deprivation is happening, but after you go back to a regular sleep cycle you should be fine, plus the mood changes are very much depending on the person, my record for sleep deprivation is 48 hours (not much, I know) and people say that even that makes you suffer mood changes and not with me I was just a bit more out of place as in I was too tired and I was a bit distracted for that, but after I went to sleep I was perfectly fine

Once you go past a certain point you are inflicting permanent damage to your brain. Everyone, just watch the fucking video. Your questions will be answered
