alt Hacker NewsI don’t think I’ve seen a cookie banner pop up with a “please reconsider” on refusal … ever, actually. Neat?
I had Debian running on an old clamshell iBook for a bit; the main things I remember were that it was kind of neat, and that it took less cpu to play music from my server via mpd and pulseaudio-over-network than it did to play the files directly on the iBook.

On the subject of cookie banners, https://gdpr.eu/cookies/ says
“To comply with the regulations governing cookies under the GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive you must […] Make it as easy for users to withdraw their consent as it was for them to give their consent in the first place.”
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a site with “withdraw cookie consent” functionality.
The best you can get is that it is as easy to not consent as to consent (and this site doesn’t even accomplish that. Not consenting requires two click, consenting only one)
I'm struggling to come with why reasons why such a website should display that banner. Apple doesn't.
