That's not the right syntax for Google, hasn't been for years. The syntax is now that double quotes mean the search term must appear on the page for it to be included in the results. So double quotes are like a logical AND, everything else is logical OR but obviously heavily weighted.
You correct search term should be:
"ibanez" "rb-800"
First result looks correct but I don't know much about guitars.
You could try to ask, but it was no guarantee of even getting a response, never mind a useful, definitive one.
What I meant was you could ask the data subject for permission. One of the great things about it, from my perspective, was that all I had to do was ignore people I didn't want to be associated with and they would be forced to delete data about me. No more making individual requests for removal.
I suppose I'm looking at it more from an individual's point of view. I've got multiple complaints on the go because a lot of big companies (e.g. PayPal and Apple) can't seem to comply even when the requirement is clear.
It's unnecessary, especially on a minimal search site like DDG. If you block DDG from using the canvas it doesn't break anything. They really need to explain what they are doing with it.
There are boxes designed specifically for this. They have a barcode that the delivery person can scan in place of a signature. The more intelligent ones have scales so they can weigh the item put in the box, to prevent substitutions or scanning the barcode without depositing the item. Kinda like those automated supermarket checkouts.
They are overkill for most people though. A simple box with padlock would be enough.
It's worth asking if you can get stuff delivered to work too. A lot of workplaces have people handling deliveries anyway, and handling employee stuff is just a nice perk of the job.
That's a fair point, but I'm not sure it could be any other way because the law can't hope to enumerate every possible legitimate use of data. At best it would stifle innovation. In Europe this is the usual way of handling such situations, e.g. the law generally doesn't define what an "obscene publication" is and allows regulators and courts to hash it out, with the definition changing over time as society becomes more liberal.
All they need to do to confirm that some use is legal is ask. I don't have an issue with companies being over-cautious with asking permission. That's the way to deal with uncertainty - just ask for permission. If you failed to do that before GDPR and are now scrambling to get it, that is probably a hint.
Here's an example for you. Search for "BC137" on both.
On Google you get live flight details on flight BC 137 (note how it isn't phased by the extra space), and then working links to datasheets for that transistor. No matter which one you wanted, the right info is in the first couple of hits.
On DDG you don't get any flight info, and it's actually a bit awkward to search for it because of the space. There is a link to Flightradar some way down the page, but that's probably not what you want. The links relating to the BC137 transistor are mostly just spam datasheet dump sites.
DDG is generally fine for popular/common stuff, but can't match Google's ability to understand and automatically include relevant but not perfect string match results, as well as its ability to provide the most useful information about specific things like flights.
This seems like a fundamental misunderstanding of lithium cells. For example, the cylindrical ones will swell just as much if they don't have proper venting. If they are made poorly and short out they are actually more dangerous than the defective Samsung cells you link to, as the resulting explosion is inside a pressurised metal can. That's why the decent ones have pressure vents, although inside a sealed automotive pack it might not help much.
Pouches should vent safely too if properly designed. Your own article notes that. That's what makes the Samsung debacle such an epic screw-up.
Pouch cells are chosen because of their form factor. No-one wants a phone the thickness of an 18650. Even the Nokia 3310 wasn't that thick. I'm curious to know what you think the alternative is.
I hate to say this but it really sounds like you are just making up ridiculous reasons why the technology that happens to be a bit ahead of your beloved Tesla is total crap. And this happens every single time. How long did it take to convince you that Kia/Hyundai/Nissan have a decent autopilot system? I bet even now you are thinking of reasons why it's awful and will certainly murder the user.
It can't work that way in any properly designed system, because a waveform more square than the sinewave would exceed the limits of the low pass filter. In practice the filters are imperfect of course, but any decent one won't look much different.
They do seem to have improved the fitting of the bodywork considerably. Paint is still a bit hit and miss, but improving too.
Of course how much they pay per kWh for the batteries is a secret, but it does seem to be a bit more than Kia/Hyundai are paying for them. Either that or they are just ripping their customers off more.
It seems like it just got shuffled around and ended up there, probably because no-one working on it paid much attention to the usability of the off switch on their masterpiece.
Open the Google app. Click on "more". Open Settings. Click on Settings (again). Assistant tab. Scroll down and you will see your phone. Click that, then there is a master toggle to enable/disable Google Assistant on that device.
This is with the Niro and Kona you can have autopilot and luxuries like heated/ventilated seats, but they still cost less than the promised $35k Model 3.
Munro haven't looked at a Kona as far as I can tell, and I couldn't find anything to indicate that they have looked at an LG pouch cell pack in any detail.
Cylindrical cells do have some advantages, that's likely why Panasonic recommended them to Tesla for automotive use. But since most people don't need sub 2 second 0-100 times or sustained track performance, if you want to get the price down you can just go with a bit less cooling performance. Redundancy isn't much different in practice as cylindrical cells are grouped together electrically in similar density anyway.
As for being "junk", maybe you think call cell phone batteries are "junk" or something... I don't know what to tell you, Kia and Hyundai offer a better warranty than Tesla so clearly they think they are pretty decent. There are plenty of junk cylindrical cells too, I don't think you can judge the form factor based on those.
Voice dialling works really well for me, but then again I don't have many friends so the number of possible names it has to match against is rather limited.
Enterprise is ditching HDDs in favour of SSDs as fast as possible for everything except bulk, low speed storage. The performance gap between SSDs and HDDs is vast, and RAM for cache is relatively expensive per GB. For some applications, particularly anything database related (including mail servers, often one of the biggest and most business critical operations) SSDs are impossible to beat.
Reliability isn't a major issue, accounted for with RAID and backups.
That's not true in the EU, the environmental costs of outsourced pollution are factored in to the environmental taxes that EU companies have to pay.
Plus China is actually cleaning up quite rapidly now, rather than using poor environmental standards to its advantage (like the current US administration wants to).
It's useful in the car. If you decide to change destination, or need to make a detour, or want to see nearby chargers, you can just ask it. Sometimes it offers you alternative routes and you can just say yes or no.
The advantage of 2TB drives is you can back up everything, twice. And you don't have to waste time sorting out the bits you really need to keep/archive, just do the whole lot.
Someone posted a break-down of the cost/benefit ratio once. As I recall there was a photographer who had a fair amount of photos to store, and it was suggested he sort out the good ones and discard the rest. Turns out that paying someone minimum wage to do that was far more expensive than just adding more and more storage to keep it all.
If you are only dealing with 1TB/year you could easily do an rsync type backup off-site too. 1TB of cloud storage costs next to nothing, or set up your own storage server at another office etc.
So, similar to how some US companies like General Motors and certain financial institutions are too big to fail, and the government makes sure they don't fail.
People on Slashdot have been posting the equivalent of "640k should be enough for anybody" for decades now.
Something always comes along to fill that space. For a while I thought streaming/cloud might slow it down as people stop keeping stuff locally, but no it's carried on growing as fast as the R&D can manage.

How is choice of search engine related to the amount of email spam you get?

Would help to know what phone you have, then we might be able to guess how you keep randomly opening it.
One possibility is a long press of the home button. You can disable that unless your phone is particularly shitty.
Voice dialling works really well for me, but then again I don't have many friends so the number of possible names it has to match against is rather limited.
