This meme was created with Microsoft PowerPoint™
(sh.itjust.works)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
People use power point for academic presentations? I thought it was either beamer or, if you are a hipster scientist, reveal.
I actually do use beamer for most presentations, but all universities I've worked at only ever provided templates for PowerPoint. My solution to this has been to just write a .sty file that makes it look similar (and leaves out the over-designed garbage that the templates tend to contain).
Edit: I've tried reveal, too. Didn't hate it, but it makes some things ridiculously difficult (e.g., handouts or "overlay-style" animations).
In germany many technical universities offer .sty packages in the corporate design. Really cool!
