SIRI has lost its mind...


 

An experiment: Ask SIRI what the date for Easter is.

I googled all around and can¡¯t find anyone talking about it. I know several people, though, who see the same problem.

Apparently it has to do with Eastern Orthodox Church - Found this:
Q. When is Orthodox Easter?
A. The Eastern Orthodox Church follows the Julian calendar (versus the
Gregorian calendar), which often means a different date for Easter
Sunday, though the calendars do sometimes coincide. This year,?
Orthodox Easter falls on May 5, 2024.?

What determines when Easter is each yearAs a moveable feast, the date of Easter is determined in each year through a calculation known as computus (Latin for 'computation'). Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday after the Paschal full moon, which is the first full moon on or after 21 March (a fixed approximation of the March equinox).

My phone and my wife¡¯s phone and the iPhone of a friend of mine in California all say May 5 when you just ask when Easter is. If you get specific about the Easter date for WESTERN Christianity it will give you March 31.

There may be a setting that tells Siri that I would want the Eastern date for some reason, but I can¡¯t imagine what that might be.
