No, because we’re telling to use : as a separator with the -F flag

Not sure if I’m understanding, but can’t you just pipe the whole thing to awk and capture the first field? Like

echo "/dev/loop0: [2081]:64 (/a/path/to/afile.dat)" | awk -F: '{print $1}'

Which would print

/dev/loop0

I’d suppose if you ask this on KDE Reddit someone with enough time could make something like this with Kvantvm, though the difficult parts would be (1) the web browser theme, and specially (2) the icon theme - I have never ever seen an icon theme like that for Linux

Yes, shaving is a chore - when you have to do it on a daily basis.

As a professional bald fart for more than 15 years, one of the reasons I’m thankful to be able to work from home is that I no longer need to shave head+beard on a daily basis. I really dislike the “shade” so always tried to shave as close to the skin as possible, which took me up to half an hour. Now that I have a job I get to look like one of those wojak characters with aggressive baldness and not worry about shaving for days.

Granted, with a safety razor that time came down to like 20-25 minutes and got less nicks than with a disposable razor. But when I had the chance to get a Leaf razor that came down to 15-20 minutes and never got nicks again. And with that one it’s like the best of the two worlds - multiple blades to speed and make easier the shaving process and the non-disposable razor with real cheap and superb blades.
