@NVAccess Oddly, got a '502 bad gateway' message by clicking the link in this post.
@FreakyFwoof Thanks yes I posted that at the perfect time, didn't I? I'm getting it as well now (though not 14 seconds earlier when I copied the link to put in the post). Chasing it up now.
@FreakyFwoof Ooh, it's back, quick try now before I break it again!
@NVAccess Not here lol
@NVAccess Nope, I lied. It just took an age to refresh.
@FreakyFwoof @NVAccess Yeah, that system seems rather unhappy. Did you feed the database with Microsoft ribbon commands or something?
@jcsteh @FreakyFwoof The wheel is slowling down - Quick! Fetch another hamster!
@NVAccess Why does this page take so much time to load? It's really slow - the opposite of what NVDA itself is <smile>.
@amir We are aware of it, and yes, do intend to see what we can do to speed that up - it is slow but generally (touch wood, and apologies about earlier) it usually gets there in the end.
@NVAccess Hope it hasn't been triaged with a P3 or P4 label as it means we have to wait either many years or indefinitely to see it fixed <chuckle chuckle>. One of them is here - not mine, but really worth taking care of: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/141
@NVAccess so I got my certification in 2018. I could do it again and donate another 99 bucks. Has the exam been updated? Might be worth doing.
@bmoore123 @NVAccess Yeah, I need to update mine as well.
@mcourcel @bmoore123 It was last updated in 2022. An update will come, but I need to update the Excel module first (the exam doesn't have anything to do with Excel, just that module really needs an update). So, there will probably be a 2025 version of the exam :)
