Unai Emery’s pre-match thoughts
Good evening. The priority is the Premier League – our main objective for the season was to fight to be in the top five. It is our last home game of the season, against Liverpool: our focus is 100 per cent on this match. blablasex.es
We are so, so happy with our overall performance this season. But we are demanding and we have asked the players why [some recent performances have been below-par].

Brendon McCullum will have to adapt to a new environment as Test setup looks to move on from thrashing
In selecting Emilio Gay and James Rew for their Test squad to face New Zealand, England have in one sense been true to their word. The Ashes mea culpa included a promise to give more weight to domestic performances. Both men tick that box.
And yet as the team picks up the pieces after the 4-1 defeat in Australia, wounds licked and lessons learned, perhaps the question is whether they are staying true to themselves more broadly – or even, who actually are they these days?

Framework, the company known for ultra-repairable laptops and desktop PCs, is launching a wireless touchpad keyboard, and it has become the company's most waitlisted item. When you consider the company is not traditionally known for accessories, it's strange to think that's the device people really want.
As announced on the company's X page today, the "Framework wireless touchpad keyboard is by far our most waitlisted product! We may need to increase our plans for production capacity." Given that Framework created this new keyboard having become frustrated with a certain Logitech option while designing and testing the Framework Desktop, you might recognise a recognisable board in the bin behind it in the picture above.
For what it's worth, the waitlist is what you get put on if you choose to fill in your email on the site for the keyboard. Framework will notify you when it is in stock, giving you the option to buy it.
In fairness, the keyboard does seem very cool. It comes with "an integrated touchpad that you don't hate", according to the company, making it supposedly ideal for sim rig and living room use. Effectively, it will allow you to easily use a computer from afar without needing a mouse or the likes of the Steam Controller.
Thanks to its open-source CAD design and ZMK-based firmware, it's designed to be very moddable—the control board can also be purchased separately, should you want to make your own keyboard. The standard built keyboard has a 68.8 x 865.6 mm touchpad with multi-touch support and 1.5 mm key travel. The keyboard can be connected with a wire, via Bluetooth, or with its USB-A dongle. No price point has been announced yet, though.

Not much more is known about the keyboard yet, but it doesn't seem to be designed for gamers. The touchpad naturally won't be great for gaming, and we don't know much about the keys themselves yet.
However, should you want to run your rig from a distance, there's a clear selling point. And it seems, based on the waitlist, I'm not the only one who thinks that.
Still, to think a PC and Laptop manufacturer doesn't have a PC or laptop as its most-waitlisted device speaks volumes about the current market, and the troubles of the memory crisis.
