The website gdpr.eu is not official. It's just a website made by some people. The length of the cookie, as far as I can tell, is not even a recommendation in the law. It's just a thing someone said on the Internet. The ePrivacy Directive requires strict consent (as defined in GDPR) in order to read or write data from a user's computer, including cookies, except were strictly necessary to provision the service. There's potentially wiggle room for throttling, which is in the name of one of the cookies. I have doubts about a cookie tracking whether you've ever logged in.
