“Slide deck” is an old person term, not a young person term.
If anything calling it a slide deck makes you sound old.

Okay, so are we among 80 year olds who still can't computer, or are we among 20 year olds who either don't use Microsoft Office or are trying to stop using Microsoft branding for the concept of presentations?

Maybe they meant as opposed to the others who are 80?
slide deck
... a what?
Often shortened to deck. Sounds similar enough to dick that you can just say dick and no one notices. You get to go around taking about showing people your dick all the time then giggle about it.
Just sliding the dick right in there.

Edward Tufte, of Information is Beautiful fame, generally advises AGAINST using PowerPoint for presentations largely because of the low information density. Powerpoint, generally, forces you to put a LOW amount of information on the screen which can really be a problem in some situations.
His advice: Create a Word doc and give that as a handout.
As opposed to being like, 60 instead? Cuz that's the demographic I'd think of as using the term "slide deck".
