|  |  | Antirez just landed a commit[1] to the github repo for DwarfStar that adds support for his heavily quantized variant of DeepSeek V4.1 Flash. He claims it runs with SSD streaming on a macbook pro M5-Max 128 GB laptop. The code was just checked in literally hours ago, so take YMMV quite literally.
