Looks like a reasonable cookie banner to me: Deny (all), Custom selection and Accept all.

It even works perfectly with Consent-O-Matic extension.

New comment by SlackingOff123 in "Show HN: AI toy I worked on is in stores"

SlackingOff123 — Tue, 14 Oct 2025 05:52:13 +0000

Moral implications of LLM aside, this is an always-online, subscription-based toy that will eventually turn into a brick (unless the parent is an HN-er). I find it really sad that this kind of toy is sold in stores.

Tell HN: Discord is apparently rolling out age verification for EU/EEA residents

SlackingOff123 — Wed, 17 Sep 2025 15:44:07 +0000

I just got prompted this morning to verify my age on Discord after updating the Discord client. I'm not a UK citizen.

It looks like they're rolling this out for EU/EEA residents based on comments from this Reddit thread [0].

They also mention this in the support article about age verification [1]: "Important: Age verification is currently part of an ongoing experiment across various regions."
