Holy crap!

Honestly, I could have done without the 67 one, though...

Edit. A few more I've found that I didn't see on the linked page. Neo, R2D2, Yoda, Pacman, Morpheus. I'm sure there are more.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 6 points 4 weeks ago

Eh the 67 doesn't hurt anyone. Stupid meme, sure, but it's not like we didn't have stupid memes 20 years ago. In this instance the lack of meaning is part of the humour.

[–] MrsDoyle@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 weeks ago

Does DuckDuckGo have reverse image search? Is it called DuckDuckCome?

DuckDuckCome is not what you think it is.

[–] vogi@piefed.social 15 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (2 children)

The other day i have noticed a similar easter egg when typing in “podman”. It’s interesting as podman is fairly niche.

[–] turdas@suppo.fi 9 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

It also works for Hatsune Miku and Kasane Teto. It didn't use to work for Akita Neru but looks like they added that after people pointed out they forgot her lol.

[–] The_Helmet_Stays_On@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Tried a few characters and Mario, Luigi and Link work as well.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 4 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

As does Sherlock Holmes and Gollum!

"Duck Duck Go Moby Dick" sounds a lot like "Go Go Gadget Moby..." well, guess I'll have to leave that incomplete now

these were all confirmed to be AI generated. dont get too hyped. No one was paid to make this art.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

My enjoyment of things is not dependent on some financial transaction happening in the background.

[–] Turret3857@infosec.pub 3 points 4 weeks ago (6 children)

My enjoyment of things is dependent on whether or not it was made responsibly. Using AI to create art instead of actually paying someone to do something and strengthening the economy is irresponsible.

Now I will spend the rest of my life looking for more hidden logos.

[–] nomen_dubium@startrek.website 6 points 4 weeks ago

TIL that ducks lay easter eggs :D

[–] nialv7@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago

Try Hatsune Miku btw

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

Duckduckwent...

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 weeks ago

I wonder if they have one for Candlejack. Oh NO he's-

[–] Avicenna@programming.dev 2 points 4 weeks ago

Also works with smurfs and Donald duck

[–] Siethron@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Back during the St Louis Blues' Stanley Cup parade. Brett Hall (Former Blue) who was wasted all the time said "we used to chant 'lets go Blues' now it should be 'we went Blues'." The DuckDuckWent made me think of that.
