Currently surf does utilize the silly apparatus. So it's shitty and
silly and whatever. I'm looking at making it work not get rid of it
all together. My grandmothers web browser handles cookies well.
"Together with John Giannandrea, Montulli wrote the initial Netscape
cookie specification the same year. Version 0.9beta of Mosaic
Netscape, released on October 13, 1994,[9][10] supported cookies."
