Show HN: We Put Chromium on a Unikernel (OSS Apache 2.0)

We’ve been building infrastructure to spin up browsers for AI agents. Originally, we built[0] it as a pool of warm Docker containers running Chromium, exposing:

- Chrome DevTools Protocol (for Playwright/Puppeteer)

- noVNC (for live view)

We’ve been following the unikernel space for a while, so we decided to see if we could get our image on one. We went with Unikraft Cloud[1]. Here’s how it did:

- Boot-up time: 10–20ms (vs. ~5s for Docker containers)

 Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB review: More VRAM and a price 'paper cut' could make for a compelling GPU

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB packs plenty of VRAM, with a base MSRP that looks reasonably attractive. It's not a huge generational improvement (outside of MFG numbers), but it will be a good option if it's readily available at $450 or less.

NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti (16GB) review: A solid semi-budget GPU for $429 (but good luck scoring that price)

NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti aims at a very niche group of gamers. Starting at $379 with 8GB of VRAM, or $429 with 16GB, the 5060 Ti is for people who want something a bit more powerful than the base $299 RTX 5060, but aren't willing to shell out for the midrange $549 RTX 5070. (And it's worth noting that card is already selling for well beyond that price). 

In terms of raw rendering power, it's a minor upgrade over the previous RTX 4060 Ti. But thanks to the power of DLSS 4 AI u
