New "Did you mean..."?
I'm seeing some drastically different suggestions from "Did you mean..." on Google today. It looks like they added something new to their algorithms?

This search, for example.

Screenshot attached. It seems to be considering more commonly used and related phrases. As can be seen by the tooltip, the "something else" link adds -term for each of the suggested terms to your existing query.

Cool
Is there any way to stop receiving the 'did you mean' or at least be able to say no, and have it disappear. Especially on an extended search I find it quite annoying. But then maybe I'm just easily annoyable

I apologize for my ignorance, but what exactly is different? (yes, I've looked at the screenshot)
