“I came to philosophy finally phrased as "0.8 is enough". … If I had a way to rate happiness, I think it's a good design to have an organism that's happy about 80% of the time. If it was 100% of the time, it would be like everybody's on drugs and everything collapses and nothing works because everybody is just too happy. … There are times when I am down and I know that I've actually been programmed to be depressed a certain amount of time.” ― Knuth

Yes, that's correct. Also, separately, Google is sunsetting the "Google Play Movies & TV app" and folding that into the YouTube (not YouTubeTV) app.

I have not had that problem. But, you do have to specifically wait for the actual air time to come and go before you're able to play it with fast-forward capability. Once that's do…

Probably a better analogy is that the back door to the evidence room that leads outside has been unlocked for an extended period of time.
