| cmaloney | Well they can't all be winners | 00:33 |
| rick_h | shakes808: for woodworking that Google project is the best thing going. /Me forgets the name. | 00:45 |
| shakes808 | rick_h: sketchup? | 00:46 |
| rick_h | shakes808: that's the one | 00:46 |
| shakes808 | so how do you make it work on ubuntu? they have a windows and mac installer but no generic linux. | 00:46 |
| rick_h | shakes808: vm basically | 00:47 |
| rick_h | shakes808: nothing I'd bear to use in Ubuntu unfortunately | 00:47 |
| shakes808 | gotcha | 00:48 |
| rick_h | :( | 00:51 |
| cmaloney | I thought Sketchup was abandoned? | 00:55 |
| shakes808 | looks like it is still active | 02:19 |
| shakes808 | i guess i will have to install it on my windows partition. :| trying to get away from windows :( | 02:21 |
