@RememberMe everything except what I wanted it to do.
MFs are preparing a deck for LT presentation and all have to "collaboratively" work on it in real time.
The formatting is shit, which I agree is human issue, but that formatting is causing thousands of annoying gird lines and even moving anything a pixel here or there, fucks up everything.
Even before that, it is incredibly difficult to control so many text boxes, objects, and elements on a single fucking slide.
Power point is raw pain. -
@atheist I have heard a lot of Latex but never used so no clue bro.
@curiousjoe welcome to 365. NGL, it's awesome but PowerPoint is fucked.
@aviophile I am not on Linux. -

atheist97933yI wrote my cv in latex (I was bored that one time and felt like doing something painful). In practical terms, it's benefitted, I can use version control, see diffs, switch different sections in and out fairly easily, have a branch for any job specific modifications, but...
It's not worth the effort. Google docs or whatever is that much easier. -
@atheist I have heard many CV makers use Latex. Never understood it.
Next, I am going to make a resume makeover, I'll head to Photoshop and make an kick-ass impression making resume. -
@TheAwesome98 power point as a product, irrespective of the suite it belongs to, sucks.

I agree Power point is a very inconvenient program. I had to make a lot of presentations myself and it was just a pain. It all came to an end and I decided to look for alternative programs for creating presentations. I chose Google presentations. I chose them because I found https://loveslides.com/ where you can download tons of design slide templates that you can use here to create presentations. Now I can make my presentations quickly and not want to kill people. I think you will find this site useful.

JudithLewis-1310dI like PowerPoint but only when I have a lot of free time and can devote time to all the details. When it comes to preparing a business plan presentation. I found https://slidepeak.com/ where I asked for help. Thanks to the expertise of the specialists, the presentation turned out to be impressive.

The person who invented powerpoint and those who use it/love it should be skinned alive.
FUCKING SHIT OF A PRODUCT.
On the other side, instead of torturing someone to death, force them to use Power point for 2 hours a day and that will be enough for the person to beg you to kill them.
Join me in this journey against power point.
