| - **Meaning of life** - all of the characters are shown at specific snapshots of their lives. They may not know where to go, or how to judge their decisions so far. They may be confused, look for an answer - or trying to escape the reality. | - **Meaning of life** - all of the characters are shown at specific snapshots of their lives.

| + | ## External | ||
| + | |||
| + | There are groups and values that hackers need to fight for different reasons. Some of them are: | ||
| + | |||
| + | - **Ignorance** - and the overall lack of caring about how the world around works. This may drive some, like [Cynic](characters:main:c_n1c) mad, how ignorant and gullible people are. For some this may be sad, others accept that as a fact of life. | ||
| + | |||
| + | - **Power structures** - hackers tend to hate those on principle. Be it a corporation, an university, or a government. Anyone trying to stuff people and technology into some stiff categories, ban people from pursuing their curiosity - is a potential enemy. | ||
| + | |||
| + | - **Economy** - [Suzanne](characters:main:suzanne) knows that she wants to do in life, she just needs money to be able to do it. No one is funding her research, and her parents would much rather see her studying. [Robert](characters:main:robert) has given up on a lot of his dreams to support a family. [Amanda](characters:main:amanda) dreams about a world where people don't need to do pointless jobs to be able to live together in anarchist communes. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ## Specific | ||
| + | |||
| + | - **University** may be the main antagonist for [Suzanne](characters:main:suzanne). She feels extremely constrained by the artificial limitations, sexism and distress towards open collaboration. While she isn't one to burn down the Academia, she certainly doesn't feel at home there. | ||
