In other news, I decided to listen to none of you that said HTPCs are useless and bought a Raspberry Pi

Its running the beginner's recommended OS Raspbian, which is based on Debian which is linux i think? I know nothing about coding so its been a challenge getting everything set up.
I can't figure out how to get openvpn running through privateinternetaccess to save my life, but once thats set up I'm gonna use it for torrenting. I thought I set it up as a NAS with a external hard drive but that didn't work quite right either. I did manage to get Deluge set up so I can just browse torrents on my laptop or desktop and send them to it through a web app. I'm also going to use Plex server and hopefully Plex client on it as well, as it will be hooked to my receiver in the living room, but I also want to be able to watch stuff on my laptop over wifi. I've managed to break the OS about 4 times now, but at least its a quick 10 minute process to reinstall and start over. If I cant figure out the vpn, i have another microSD with OSMC (Kodi) loaded on it with a vpn already set up and I guess I'll just stream everything.
