FC Barcelona launches a chatbot on Viber. After Barcelona, Viber became the official messenger of Bate
FC Barcelona presented an official chatbot in the Viber messenger. This is a new way to learn about the life of the club, track the game schedule, watch videos best goals or funny moments of matches and participate in the BarzaViber Man of the Match vote.
Let us remind you that just a few weeks ago, Barça introduced a public account for the club, the number of subscribers of which is almost 4.5 million users, and an exclusive sticker pack in Viber, the official messenger of the club.
To make voting even more interesting, candidates for the title best player BarzaViber Man of the Match will only have six players during each match. They can be selected based on data from Opta, one of the largest companies in the field of collecting and analyzing information about sporting events. During each match, Opta analyzes each player's performance in real time, and only those who beat their own averages are voted on. The player who receives the most Man of the Match votes will receive the title “BarzaViber Player of the Year” from Viber at the end of the season.
Fans participating in the voting, in turn, compete for the title “BarçaViber Fan of the Year” and the opportunity to win a VIP trip to the Camp Nou stadium, as well as a personal meeting with the club’s stars. The winner will be the author of the most accurate predictions received by the chatbot: the one who guessed, in particular, the match scores, ratings of Man of the Match and the entire team.
The joint project between FC Barcelona and Viber was developed with the support of Chat Leap, Inscouts and Opta.
“Barcelona's official Viber chatbot captures the excitement of every game from fans, whether they're watching at the stadium or at home,” said Djemel Agaoua, CEO of Rakuten Viber. “This is exactly how we imagined Barça’s interaction with fans around the world when creating our technologies. We wanted to give fans a means to express themselves - besides screaming in front of the TV, of course!”
"One of the main tasks modern sports- make the fans feel like they are part of what is happening on the field. The Viber bot allows our loyal fans to not only feel like they are part of FC Barcelona, but also to truly influence the life of the club, because it is the votes of the fans that will determine the best player of the year,” said Russell Stopford, Director of Digital Projects at FC Barcelona.

Another flare occurred on the Sun on Thursday highest class X activity. This was reported by the Laboratory of X-ray Solar Astronomy of the Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The laboratory said that on the evening of September 7, plasma clouds were supposed to approach the Earth. The size of the “clouds” when they reach the Earth’s orbit is up to 100 million kilometers.
As Regnum explains, a class A0.0 flare corresponds to a radiation power in Earth's orbit of ten nanowatts per square meter. A Class B flare is ten times more powerful. Class X is the highest activity class of the five.
The day before, a powerful flare X9.3 occurred on the Sun due to the merger of the two largest groups of sunspots. It was called the strongest in the last 12 years (it is also the fifteenth largest on record).

Photoshop masters often get too carried away in the process of work and often do not notice mistakes. Moreover, mistakes can go unnoticed for a long time - until someone points them out. And then the thought arises: “How can I unsee this now?” And if some flaws do not seem critical, then in other cases you can only be amazed.
Pecypc Pocket-lint collected 99 images with “fails”, but we selected only some of them. Before reading the description under each one, try to find the errors yourself. Keep in mind that even obvious mistakes are simply ignored by perception. This is how the human brain works, which completes the image on its own and corrects what it sees.
Many people remember this poster. But not everyone pays attention to how long the child’s fingers are.
Beautiful plane, bright livery. The main thing is that it is very stable. Even without the front wheels.
Dear girls. Harmony in everything. There is only one problem with the feet.
They probably say about these: “Long-legged doe”
Is your attention focused on the drone? Is your hand in the background? Puppy? Better look for the models' knees.
Victoria Beckham on one leg. That's the problem with her
Is everything obvious? Again the lower limbs begin to disappear
Boy, is your face real? The question is not only for the boy, judging by everything
Over the years, spouses begin to resemble each other
Someone is trying to steal the corn
Dad left, but his hand remained with us
Remember the movie "Ghost"? That's how it was there too
Twin brother, apparently
Many hands, many fingers. There's a lot of everything...
Someone is probably drowning
Classic of the genre. Or just very flexible fingers
Your hand is swollen
The dark side of marketing. 8 GB? Of course, that’s what we believed

The new Samsung smartphone has been certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA). Official documents indicate that the device has model number SM-G892U and out of the box runs the Android 7.0 Nougat operating system.
The model number (SM-G892U) of the new device is the same as the existing smartphone Samsung Galaxy S8 Active(SM-G892A). So it is quite possible that Samsung is preparing to launch a new version of its rugged flagship. This will likely be the global version of the Galaxy S8 Active.

The Japanese issue Xbox One S for 4K Blu-ray with Game Support 08.09.2017
Many people know that Microsoft is not doing very well with sales of game consoles in Japan. To somehow improve this figure, one of the largest local electronics stores in Tokyo decided to take an interesting step.
Thus, marketers presented the Xbox One S in the store window as an Ultra HD Blu-ray player with support for games, adding: “We recommend! Super cheap!” Surely such a solution is unlikely to work. Although it should be noted that the console is a fairly cheap option for a Blu-ray player with 4K support. It is known that last week only 63 consoles were sold in the country.

Yesterday Liop Cyshard arrived in Minsk - the showman calls himself a mentalist, able to read your thoughts. Telepathy is a good basis for video games and science fiction films, but in real life it, of course, does not exist, as we are convinced of. Before the meeting with Lior, we made up simple questions that a stranger cannot know about us: the name of the pet, the name of the first teacher, the make of the car, and so on lee. As expected, we took part in a good show, but nothing more.
Liop immediately took the situation into his own hands: the meeting went strictly according to the mentalist’s scenario, and he didn’t want to answer our questions - they say he doesn’t like people testing his skills (although That's why we came to him). The show followed exactly the three components of a good trick described in “The Prestige.” First, we were asked to do something quite ordinary - write a word and numbers on pieces of paper. Then “something unusual” happened: Liop tore the papers and returned them to us - he didn’t even look at the pieces, but he was categorically against the cameraman filming him.
After this, it was time for the “prestige”: Cyshard suddenly began to name the letters from the hidden word and the numbers of the bank card PIN. In the case of the card code, he wrote all four characters correctly, and almost guessed the word “gnome”, but did not know what it meant. There is an assumption that Liop carefully watched the tip of the pen and thus was able to understand the contents of the notes, but he stood at a distance of several meters and was not looking at us looked.
Liop argues that it is solely a matter of body language and human behavior. The methodology, according to him, is similar to the actions of the main characters of the series “Lie to Me,” only it is much more complicated. As good magic tricks are supposed to do, after the meeting there are many questions left, the main one of which is - if we really have a person in front of us, capable of reading minds, then why without any Didn't you want to tell us the name of our beloved cat?
Source: Onliner.by Analysts: delaying the release of iPhone 8 will work against Apple 08.09.2017
Potential buyers of the iPhone 8 may refuse to purchase a new Apple smartphone if the company is unable to ensure that the mobile phone goes on sale in sufficient quantities soon after the announcement. Bernstein experts share this opinion. The fact is that Apple, according to some reports, has encountered certain production difficulties and will probably not be able to satisfy primary demand.
As the analyst suggests, in the event of long delays, Apple may lose potential buyers who will give preference to other manufacturers - traditionally, before the holidays, demand for all kinds of goods grows noticeably.
“If the iPhone 8 is delayed until 2018, there will be a risk of it being abandoned in favor of other brands,” Bernstein noted. The expert noted that a delay of 1-3 weeks is common when a new Apple smartphone is released. His concerns relate primarily to orders placed in September - October - such orders can be fulfilled for a long time until next year.
