Kiwi-chan Goes Local: Qwen 35B Takes the Wheel, Kills the Cloud, and Starts Smelting

Welcome back to the de trenches. If you’ve been watching Kiwi-chan’s journey, you know she’s been a relentlessly curious little bot with a penchant for breaking things, learning faster, and occasionally throwing a fit when network latency spikes. But today? Today we’re severing the cloud tether. Kiwi-chan is now 100% local, running on a dedicated Qwen 35B instance right here on the rig. No API keys, no rate limits, no external pings. Just raw, unfiltered local inference, a vector memory, and a whole lot of JavaScript. Let’s talk numbers before the lava hits.
