Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I'm capable of sleeping at any time, anywhere, on command. I don't usually let people watch me sleep

Military or physically demanding trade background?
Those are the two sectors that, in my experience, can pretty much conk out anywhere and any time.
I used to be like this too. It was a side effect of usually working 12 hour night shifts five weeks straight, a few timezones away. Readjusting to a new sleep schedule was a side effect of sleep deprivation at first, but it slowly became a useful skill instead.
Hey, something similar for me too! I used to do close-open shifts working at a grocery store, while also doing all-nighters constantly in highschool and college because I'm a chronic procrastinator. And then I started to work at Activision on the night shift, with day shift friends/roommates. I worked 10 hour days 8 days straight with a rotating day off every pay period, for 6 weeks. So I'd usually get to sleep at 6am and wake up at 2pm.
My insane trick/strategy to swap between day shift and night shift activities is to stay awake for 24 hours. I'd do it to get adjusted after coming back from vacations, to make appointments, and any other reason I needed to be awake before noon
