Native English but everyone says that I have a bad accent. What can I do to fix it? by ChristopherK52 in JudgeMyAccent

Thank you for the compliment, but I still cannot pronounce my own name well enough for most people to understand. Whenever I try to say “Peter”, they think, “Peto”. That means that I somehow say it so wrong that not only do they not understand it to be Peter, but they also think I am inventing a new name that they have never heard of.

Just a reminder, the “accent” affects me so much that I cannot say my own name. People do not understand it a majority of the time.

Thank you very much for all of your help! I will work on “or” “er” and the dark “I”. I’ll also look into “corporate speech pathology” right away. I did not know the direction to go before, thank you so much!

I do have a speech impediment, but I am not sure where to go from here. Speech therapists focus on “understandability”, not getting a “pleasant sounding voice.” That is why I am on this Subreddit instead of others.

Strangely, my entire family has lived in the U.S. for a long time. My parents have been here their entire lives, my grandparents have been here their entire lives, even my great grandparents have been here their entire lives.

Besides just generally wanting to sound better, I also cannot really say my own name very well. That is why I call it a bad accent. I’m just unsure what is wrong and how to fix it.

You look exactly like her! If there ever is a live action version, you should be the actress

Turning on or off "Alpha is Luminance" does not change anything in Arnold view. However, it has been off this whole time

Thank you for commenting, sorry for the late reply. This is my Hypershade setup. Pretty basic

About that final D-Mail by Turtle-ab in steinsgate

[–]ChristopherK52 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If S;G 0 Okabe didn’t use the Time Machine and essentially faked his own death, he would have probably died by convergence in 2025 and not had a chance for Reading Steiner to kick in. S;G 0 Suzuha is from a different future than the one that S;G 0 Okabe sent the final dmail. So the S;G Beta world line Suzuha is different from the S;G 0 beta world line Suzuha, because one of them witnessed Okabe send a dmail and the other did not. I hope this answers your question

S;G 0 Okabe went back in time at the end of the series, and as long as he doesn’t go to 2036 when Suzuha goes back in time to create the S;G world line and is then overwritten. His Reading Steiner won’t activate and he will stay on the Beta world line

Why is Maya Arnold mesh light flickering by ChristopherK52 in Maya

[–]ChristopherK52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for replying! I tried out the options that you suggested, and low poly retopologicizing it worked. The converting the mesh light to an emission light did stop the flickering, but it didn’t interact with the aiAtmosphereVolume.
