Weight-edited local Qwen model greets users with profanity: "it's my day off"

djcows shared a screenshot of a chat with a "Local Qwen Loopfix Reasoning" model: after a simple "hello how are you", the model used just 1 Thought and replied with a profanity-laced "it's my day off."

Given rikiyatakehi's Weight-Space Programming experiment (GPT-6 editing Qwen3.5-0.8B weights to fix reasoning loops), this looks like the edited model in action — loops fixed, but personality apparently altered. A first viral facepalm moment for weight-space programming.
