So I'm VM'ing Arch!

This is the one I set up on my PC at home. As you see, it has mate, and that's about it. I'll take suggestions here for what I should do with it.

I also set one up at school (with the teacher's permission, no less). I'll get pics of that once it is fully operational.

Why do you ask if it's a VM ? This is something to try even on a dual-boot installation, or better, on a single-boot installation.

Anyway, what to do with Linux (whatever distro it is) ? Well, write some code !
For example, if you are currently working on an Axe project, you can set up TIlEm, tok8x and vim (with Axe syntax highlighting) and start working very efficiently
And when you need to convert a sprite into hex, write a tool for it instead of using online tools

VM?
Try rm -rf --no-preserve-root /

* Sorunome runs

Try "kill -9 -1". Gives you a nice kernel panic! Or SysRq+C.
(Even if you're doing it in a VM, SysRq get executed by the host, so you'll crash your system  )

* Hayleia runs

Yeah, but don't run it as root. Instead, do sudo chmod u+s `which rm` and you can execute rm -rf --no-preserve-root / safely as your user. 

Anyway, why not setup Xen inside your VM, install a PV VM in Xen and try LXC.

* Vogtinator runs away really quickly and hides

It's Alt+SysRq+C. You can also try this one to simulate this keyboard shortcut so you can do it in a VM:
echo c > /proc/sysrq-triggerIf it's not working, enable the feature with
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
