Link in the OP's not working for me.
Damn, I want one.
Fight smart, not fair.That's actually pretty funny.
Is using "Julian Assange is a Hillary butt plug" an acceptable signature quote?I could have told you that. He obviously never had a human heart.
Under World. It rocks!Cue heartless bastard and inhuman jokes.
They may not have a pulse but they tick and click.
Who watches the watchmen?Oh. My. GOD.

CHENEY'S A FREAKIN' ZOMBIE! TO THE BUNKERS, PEOPLE!
But on topic, that's certainly interesting. To be alive, and yet... no pulse. Ain't medical science fascinating?

I'm curious if this will have later medical complications. I'm leaning towards no, but IANAD
Fight smart, not fair.Considering that the pulse is the blood moving through the veins and arteries, I really doubt that he has no pulse. No heartbeat, maybe, but not "no pulse"...
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.The pulse is caused by the heartbeat I believe. He'll have blood pressure, but not a pulse.
Fight smart, not fair.That's... really kinda . I'm usually pretty up to date with medical advances and tech since my nurse friend won't ever shut up about them, but I didn't know this kind of device existed.
i. hear. a. sound.'''YOU SEE THIS DOG I'M PETTING? THAT WAS COURAGE WOLF.Cute, isn't he?
Yeah, the one in the gizmodo article uses a rotor, so there will just be a continuous blood pressure going on, no pulse. If it's a piston or contraction system, it would leave a pulse.
Fight smart, not fair.Fun fact: Dick Cheney does have a heart. But it's so cold hearted that it pumps liquid oxygen instead of blood, meaning his pulse is almost non-existent. Only his sheer, raw hatred for the Middle East generates enough warmth to hide this
This thread is just plain .
The Reaper Games starts anew.I'm a bit skeptical about the long-term okay-ness of not having a pulse. I mean, the circulatory system is designed for blood pressure that rises and falls with a heartbeat, right?
This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...Darth Cheney sneers at your pathetic human physiological constraints.
Death is scared of Cheney.
The man's soul tried to escape by taking out his heart, but Cheney refused to die, leaving his soul trapped forever in his inhuman, machine body.
Cheney, like Queen Elizabeth II and Fidel Castro, will never die.
If you want any of my avatars, just Pm me I'd truly appreciate any avatar of a reptile sleeping in a Nice Hat Read Elmer Kelton booksNot just a zombie, a ZOMBIE CYBORG!
But yeah, this is pretty interesting.
No aim, no pulse, what next?
Okay, okay. The subject is humorous enough but I'm afraid that we don't need threads focused entirely around laughing at another person, no matter how much agreement there is that he deserves it.

Really.
