How far fetched is the idea to use Super-Capacitors to take up the energy generated by braking and then slowly feeding it to the battery at a rate that it supports?

Third party remotes do work on most TVs, I use a Nvidia Shield Remote on my TCL over bluetooth for example. I cannot however turn the TV on using that remote. Having a dedicated Play/Pause Button is still worth it however.

From that point on I am sure he knew to do that. What's obvious to you can also just be your experience.

At least with the recent Pixels there's an option to have your phone listen 24/7 and tell you what music is playing. Probably difficult to distinguish this tower from a homeless guy sitting in a subway station listening to different music all day.
