60 bps is a fine HR, if you are implying it isn't

Edit: WHOOPSIE DAISY

Yeah, 60hz isn't a pulse, it's a bass hum. It means you are a robot operating in the US and you have a poorly filtered power supply.

I’ve been meaning to get my power supply checked, but my robo-kid needs a memory upgrade and have you _seen_ RAM prices lately.

On the plus side, plenty of employment opportunities in the US these days. They’re offering us all the former meatbag jobs :)


You’re thinking of one beat per second, i.e. 60 beats per minute. 60 bps is not possible, but if it were, it wouldn’t be survivable.

Heart beat is usually measured in bpm. All the charts top out at 200. 360 bpm is certainly problematic for a human.

3600 bpm would be even more problematic.

Even techno would be slower :)

That's 3 times the heart rate of a hummingbird.

Upvoted for the edit. :D
