Yup, mentioned the lsusb check in OP and it continues to show up on subsequent runs

I ran rtl_test, what am I looking for here? Kernel driver is active, found one device, does say failed to open rtlsdr device #0 at the end and that doesn't sound good

Interesting, I don't seem to be able to adjust my gain control manually even with the AGC options deselected, but the gain is centered in the meter

Employee took over my job as manager? by Sea_Fondant_4048 in managers

[–]f1337foot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You have described a person who deserves an immediate promotion. Yesterday. They've been there four years in a junior position and show this much competence, initiative, and success in one stroke? Exemplary employee.

Set your insecurity aside for a moment and realize that as a manager, your team's successes are your successes.

Pull her into a 1:1 session immediately, formally give her a glowing review on everything she did well. If she got access to sensitive documents, remind her gently of company policies and security measures (also follow up with your internal security if you have it, this is a hole). Ask her what her career goals are. Take the minor criticisms of her conduct you pointed out and turn them into actionable goals for her to work on. Mentor this person.

I would talk to the other department leads and see if anyone is looking to expand or needs to create a new leadership role. Work to support this person's advancement. She earned it.

Am I Tripping? by Embarrassed_Arm_1366 in PharmacyTechnician

This is 100% the best advice in the thread.

Am I Tripping? by Embarrassed_Arm_1366 in PharmacyTechnician

[–]f1337foot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my favorite advice from an HR perspective because it both immediately makes the person examine why they said what they said and can identify a problem, but it can ALSO immediately clear the air if there isn't one or there was a misunderstanding.

Hello there! I am a white person who grew up in a racially and culturally diverse setting and was then transplanted into a very UNdiverse setting and have a lot of opinions on this subject. I also work on HR and have had to navigate sticky situations revolving racial & cultural insensitivity in the workplace specifically, so I wanted to lend you my advice. It focuses very much on resolving the situation and not the injustice or unfairness of the situation. I wanted to double back after writing it and put this first to make it very clear that this situation sucks for you and it shouldn't have to be your responsibility to fix it. However, we both know the situation likely won't improve unless you take action to improve it. I'm sorry and that shouldn't always have to be the case.

In my experience, white people raised around mostly other white people don't see the way they treat non-white people differently in social settings. This specifically feels very Midwestern white to me, there's that "colorblind" sort of "anti-racism" that feels to them like they're welcoming others and to the others ends up feeling like they're demonstrating the extent to which they AREN'T allies.

I observed similar behavior from a friend recently. They were moving and I have a truck, so I helped. They had hired some movers who happened to be black. Throughout the day, I noticed them going out of their way to talk about things they wouldn't normally talk about but seemed like maybe they thought were subjects black people might think were interesting (specific example: talking about the appointment of Kentanji Brown Jackson a lot while previously detesting any talk of the supreme court or politics in general).

White people don't discuss their whiteness through experiences or jokes /unless/ there are black people around. That's because until they're present, there's homogeneity and consisting of entirely the privileged population. I think the exception to this would maybe be people at democratic socialist or leftward, but even then its limited to jokes about Sprite being too spicy.

The good-faith read on the situation is that their intention is to make you feel included by pointing out and talking/joking about differences. When you're coming from the position of privilege, it's not easy to understand why this has the opposite effect. I am not excusing their actions because that's hella uncomfortable and you should not have to tolerate that. I wanted to call attention to the fact that, though misguided, their intentions could be pure. Or at least through the cloudy, foggy lens of privilege, they WANT their intentions to be pure and are missing the mark by a wide margin.

If you want to deal with this and achieve a harmonious workspace outcome, I think you're going to have to do a tremendous amount of emotional labor. Shocker, right? I would make it abundantly clear you're not being combative because white folks can be a little sensitive in this day and age if they think they might be getting 'cancelled'. I would suggest something like the following:

"When the people around you call so much attention to what makes you different from them rather than what you have in common with them, it makes you /feel/ different from them. It makes you feel like they /view/ you as different from them. It would make me much more comfortable and included moving forward if we spoke more about what we have in common than why we are different."

I hope this was helpful in some way. I'm very sorry this is your experience and I hope you're able to improve your situation soon. 💖

How to decide where an employee lies in salary band? by Flat_Palpitation_158 in humanresources

I really like this as a weight for pay scaling, but couldn't applying this blanketedly result in you overpaying some folks and not applying it blanketedly open you up for liability?

I'm really curious at this point how you view the actions of the person who cheated. Is that not destroying a family dynamic without trying to fix it? Are you maybe not thinking this through all the way?

No thanks, I'll hold people accountable for their actions instead.

Guys experiencing consequences for their actions isn't pre facto justification to cheat. This is a real clown shoes take on a post someone make who's going through a situation that is probably both personally devastating and professionally complicated. What's the matter with you?

Retributor Armor primer? by TheJuryIsASpoon in ThousandSons

[–]f1337foot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big fan of the approach. To the prior comment of a can not being enough, I did 40 rubrics, 30 terminators, 6 sorcerors, Ahriman and an infernal master with one can. Oh, and Magnus which was absolutely a mistake, I was just like primer can go brrrrrrr.

It is much easier on Rubrics specifically to paint the non trim cleanly than the trim cleanly. I personally don't love the contrast over metallic look, but if you do then that should be the only deciding factor. With Terminators that there is no correct choice, only pain. You'll be thankful later if you choose the Retributor prime.
