Deep question: lately I have felt that I don't belong anymore to anyplace in the sense of a movement. For me it has been always hip-hop and open source, my two crews where I actually see a fit in. However, years are passing and hip-hop has changed losing its roots (probably, because I'm getting older) and open-source stills important but it is not the same as it was in the beginning. This feeling could be because when I was younger I loved hip-hop because its deep roots with the streets and fight with the status quo. It was political, it said truths. Nowadays we don't pass from Drake and Kendrick fighting like two little kids. Don't get me wrong, it has been legendary, but I guess you get my point. The same goes with OSS. In the beginning it was fighting against the status quo of Microsoft and Apple. Nowadays, people embrace non-GPL licenses and we will never see the light of the Mach micro-kernel :D What do you think? Do you feel the same?

These feelings come from trying to stay current as things continue to change. Your values are already set, and as time passes, so do those values. I think this is normal. Not ideal but normal. I'm big on "I don't like this but I try to understand it" to just keep up and pick & choose what I like.
