Can the son of a general become general himself? Yes, of course he can. Can the son of a general even become a marshal? Not if the marshal has a son, too.
You have people lining up that can debug and patch obfuscated multithreaded applications you don't have the source code for? Send them over, we need some more like that too!
Accountability can take many forms, and not all of them need the ability to link something to the physical you. Take any online game where you accumulate something (xp, in-game wealth, whatever). If you cheat, your account will be banned, rendering all that in-game achievements worthless. So, in a way, even though nobody can tell that superstud99 that was just banned for cheating was you, there is still accountability in effect.
Essentially, it's usually enough to threaten an investment made by a person to make him "behave".
In a little longer, you accurately identified the two groups that are actually the biggest supporters. Redneck hicks who fell for the MAGA, and rich people who knew what to expect from the GOP.
You'll notice that those that ask for this are also the ones that demand fairness in tax burden. Exempting those that could bear more than those that get to pay the lion's share is by no means fair.
Flash died because it is a security hole. Not a single month went by without there being at the very least 20 critical patches for Flash, usually connected with remote code execution. Every CISO on this planet who didn't just hold that title because "we needed some idiot with that title so we hired this bum" pretty much outlawed anything remotely bordering on Flash in their company.
Which means that any "professional" web presence had to be done without Flash, because nobody in a commercial setting could watch it. And a technology can only get so far with cheap time-waster games if it's not backed by Steam...
Comparing apples with oranges. The modules for the NES / Famicom are hardly comparable to loading stuff from a HD or, worse, web page. What you're doing there is essentially the equivalent of stuffing a bank of RAM (or, more precisely, ROM) into a memory slot, turning your machine on and this Rom being hardwired to be part of the machine you're using.
If you do this, it's trivial to be fast. Of course you can do this, and only this, with this setup. Displaying something else requires at the very least to replace the rom.

Actually it's mutually exclusive.
Old Soviet Joke:
Can the son of a general become general himself?
Yes, of course he can.
Can the son of a general even become a marshal?
Not if the marshal has a son, too.
Who cares what they add (well, mostly 'cause they don't really do that anymore), what we're all dying to hear is what plug gets removed this time.
So my privilege is not knowing my privilege?
I guess then it's less of a privilege than a lack of something for someone else.
Smarter and most likely also cheaper.
Another job about to be taken away by robotics. Though I can't say that I pity the "victims" this time around.
Didn't claim there was any. Only that the ones that don't mind more taxes also want fairness in their taxes.
In this world run by psychopaths? Not until you change that bit first.

Hey, I don't complain. I'm in Europe, all the things you list play into our hands.

Could also move to Europe. Ok, not ALL utilities are nationalized, but it's usually enough to make sure it's affordable to live there.
You been in a coma for a decade?
So ... it's like this one but without malware and ads?
I'd call this a step in the right direction.
I keep hearing about this privilege and maybe now finally I also get to hear what it's about. Well? What is my privilege?
The last 20 years? Way longer. "Do as I say, don't do as I do" is at least as old as the first priest fucking the first altar boy.
In short: Yes.

You haven't been on this planet for long, have you?
Lacks synergy, strategy and vision.

Does it get the job done? That's what I care about.
Don't want me at your site? Ok.
NEXT!
THAT is what people want???
No wonder I don't understand humans.
Slightly confused by this. The app is going to take time to load regardless of whether or not there's a splash screen.
Without the splash screen, we're at the very least saving the time to load the splash screen.
