Which is why i put it in quotation marks. I couldn't remember the name of the reaction, so that was my go-to replacement.

Yeah I can see that the seams of his "before" models is actually look like what I've been able to achieve on mine now. I guess I was trying to fix the last bit with standard seam options which might not have been possible.

I'll download the noisyfox orca slicer and test the scarf seams out.

It's a work phone, I don't bring it home with me unless I know I'll need to support a colleague in a different time zone. And I'm certainly not going to put any personal information or documents on it or use it for any personal use. My work has complete control of the phone remotely and can install/remove apps at will. I'm not even allowing it to connect to my WiFi when I have it home with me.

Just tried, prusa slicer results in the same seam issue. I just loaded the default printer profile from anycubic and only changed gcode flavour from marlin to klipper (since I'm running klipper) and left the rest at default. Looks the same.

I'll post it later today

It has an older i3 quadcore @ 3ghz max with 16gb ram and 1tb nvme, can't remember the model number.

I think idle without any VMs or containers running is around 6.5W, so no it's not much lower.

Yes but the overhead we have is nothing compared to the energy needed to make everything hydrogen powered. we would need an absolute absurd amount of overhead to generate all the hydrogen from overhead alone.

It's kind of dumb to intentionally waste 75-80% of the total electric energy initially generated to power hydrogen vehicles.

Using hydrogen to store the occasional grid overhead to be used for the grid later is a great idea, it should absolutely be done ASAP...but it's not a solution to hydrogen powered vehicles.

Hydrogen is incredibly inefficient compared to using electricity directly. You have to first use the electricity to make the hydrogen, this is very inefficient in itself. then you have to "burn" it to drive the vehicle, which wastes most of the energy just like ICE vehicle. So you need several times the initial energy generation to drive a hydrogen vehicle the same distance compared to using electricity directly.

Of course the batteries is then the issue when it comes to EVs, so they're not a magic bullet. But I wouldn't say hydrogen is the obvious better choice either since it is so wasteful with the energy.

It's an anycubic kobra 2 running klipper.

Randomized seams leaves the same mess, but randomly distributed around the model and not aligned like in the picture. But each seam is equally bad everywhere on the model.

Speed doesn't seem to affect the issue, I've tried both 30mm/s and 100mm/s

I disassembled the X and Y axes yesterday to check the motion system, moving by hand seems as smooth as it's ever been, no slip that I could feel. I think one roller on the X axis is very slightly oval unfortunately, but moving the model to different locations have no effect on this, and rotating models so seams align differently on the axes doesn't change anything, so I don't think that's the source of the issue.

Is the bad side of the seam where it stops or where it starts printing the outer wall? I assume it's where it stops and then it cross the wall to form the infill?

Correct, but this still happens when printing without infill, although less.

To add to the PA questions, are you sure that your PA setting actually are changing anything?

When printing the PA pattern, I can clearly see a difference. I haven't seen a huge difference in the actual print quality. It doesn't seem to have the any effect on this issue.

What printer is this and what firmware?

It's an anycubic kobra 2 bedslinger running klipper

What if you print the part significantly slower (to rule out rigidity/acceleration issues)

Tried printing at both 30mm/s and 100mm/s, it looks the same aside from slightly worse ringing at the higher speed.

I've only recently gotten the iPhone, and I don't use it outside of work ever, so I basically only use outlook, teams, the camera and flashlight...and regular calls of course.

Huh, wasn't aware that swiping from the edge of the corner to the right would bring down that menu. I'm used to just swiping down from anywhere on the top to get that...thanks I guess.

Searching for flashlight in the settings of my daily driver brings it up too, but gives me nothing on the iPhone.

I regularly use the flashlight on it, but I haven't found a way to enable that from anywhere else than the bloody lock-screen. Searching for any variation of flashlight, light or torch only brings up websites and apps to download...it's a small thing, but insanely annoying.

If you can only find things with a search function, the UI is dogshit...but yes, they also often call things different names than what is obvious to me.

I'm using orca slicer

I find the iPhone interface extremely unintuitive. I have one for work, and I'm a complete imbecile at using it, despite being decently tech-savvy. Everything I want to do is not were I expect it to be, it takes me forever to find things and settings.

I've tried both on and off, but for some reason it's not printing at all when its off...guess I'll have to troubleshoot that some other time 🤷‍♂️

You could use the mixed colour transition for infill, that way it could be used instead of just wasted.
