Amen to the snapshots! I'm on a Mac but have to run a windows VM for certain functions (The database schema tool is PowerDesigner 7. Don't ask, it's a painful as it sounds.) Periodically, when making a schema change something happens in the process (a huge honkin' convoluted mess of a process) and you are completely hosed.
Snapshots have saved my bacon more than once. I do them regularly when needing to make a schema change, before and after a successful completion.

I'm closing on 10 years of Linux as main OS, with lot of VM's for years...
Now I closed SQL VM (running on Linux itself) and dropped VS in favor of VS Code about a year ago... Granted that VS have more features but VS Code get's more and more of it already and basicaly built on a very powerful plug-in system, so I can extend it to myself with very little effort...

You realize of course that once she buys the shoes, she'll have to buy a new dress to go with them (which will take an ing age), and then when you're drooling from boredom and not paying close attention she'll ask you the terrifying question:
"Does this dress make me look fat?"

Yoko Shimomura - Fight Against an Armed Boss[^]
No metal, rock, pop or electro this week.
Instead I have a soundtrack from the good old 16-bit era, Super Mario RPG on SNES
I tried the game on my SNES Classic Mini because I never played it back in the day, was surprised that it was a Square game (I'm a fan of the FF series), and I actually liked it enough to finish it in a few days of almost non-stop gaming.
The soundtrack isn't bad either, but this boss theme rocks!
And the main composer of the game is no other than Yoko Shimomura, who's also responsible for the awesome Kingdom Hearts and FFXV soundtracks!
Bonus: Ludópatas - Fight Against an Armed Boss (Super Mario RPG)[^]

I played WoW back when I was in college (and initially failed my master's because of it )
Great soundtrack, I especially loved Sholazar Basin[^].
WotLK was the last one I played though, but the later soundtracks sound great too.

I am in another universe … sorry … Recently discovered this DM track from Bolt Thrower:
Bolt Thrower - Granite Wall - YouTube
Playing the whole album all the time … I don't mind at all that it was recorded more than 10 years ago …
Sounds like a masterpiece to me

Bolt Thrower is awesome!
I should really listen to it more often, but I somehow got stuck with the amazing Honour Valour Pride[^] album
