Than you for your reply. I am a programmer. I know all about random number generators. There is no such thing as a true random number generator, as you saw by your link on pseudo random numbers.

This is a sudden change, reported by multiple people, that belies the idea of it just being "randomness". Every random number generator is seeded. There are algorithms that can be used to choose both the seed and the array of choices to choose from. It could well be that the random numbers are being seeded in such a way to make them fairly random, but what is happening is that the pool to select from has been narrowed. Or some weight is given to some items more than others, which is more likely what is happening
