Duck or dick? [189] [Solution posted]

I wonder what one expects when opens this thread...

Anyway, this has to be fun, there are images and also things to vote for. Have fun, or something.

Hint1: the tooltip of the potato says http://folk.uio.no/gergelyc/a.html, yes, it is yet again my usual binary mess
Hint2: the answer to the question in the title happens to be d}ck (the one in the poll is wrong and can not be fixed, sorry)
Hint3: a cheerful chant for the occasion - Wise-wise, bit-wise, yeah-yeah, bit-wise

Megahint
Bitwise operations actually exist, and they operate on bits.
Here is what or is doing:

0 or 0 = 0
0 or 1 = 1
1 or 0 = 1
1 or 1 = 1

If someone visits xlate, it is easy to get binary representation of strings from there. For example Duck or dick:

   01000100 01110101 01100011 01101011 = Duck
or 01100100 01101001 01100011 01101011 = dick
-----------------------------------------------------
   01100100 01111101 01100011 01101011 = d}ck

So the thing can be done manually, just it may be a bit tedious - if someone has 288 bits for example. Also, if someone wants to shorten those 288 bits, care should be taken to cut n*8 digits (and thus preserve the byte boundaries). However xlate has hexadecimal output, which nicely preserves bytes, and Windows has Calculator, which can work with up to 16-digit hexadecimal numbers at a time (in Programmer view).
Calculator even skips the spaces, so one could directly take 44 75 63 6b from xlate for Duck, paste, click on Or, take 64 69 63 6b for dick, paste, press Enter, and get 647D636B as result. The xlate page does not care about spaces, so this hexadecimal code can be pasted into it directly, and d}ck will appear after decoding.

Solution

This was just a re-iteration of my steganography mania, but everything was present in this thread. a.html first was linked as tooltip for the artistic potato, but very soon appeared as a hint.
Decoding the images lead to two binary codes of 288 bits each. I made sure that all characters are printable, so xlate could be used to get the text from them:

Almost There, J s 'Ca s  2HH0$ TH$&"
Almost There, Ju t C u e $AP(1 q`*,,

The "Almost There, " part is trivially removable, and if someone watches carefully it can be guessed that the first binary part combines to "Just'Cause", which is true: in ASCII, binary or-ing a space and a lower-case letter results in the lower-case letter.
What remains is

2HH0$ TH$&" - 36 65 80 40 49 32 113 96 42 44 44
$AP(1 q`*,, - 32 48 48 30 24 20 54 48 24 26 22

While Calculator in Windows can deal with 16 hexadecimal digits (8 characters) at a time, pasting these numbers works already (just the last 6 digits will be ignored), or-ing and decoding leads to "6IX85 uh", a small train starting with Just Cause Collection.
The last 6 digits combine to "...".

189 (plain decimal) is BD in hexadecimal. I needed some sane deadline for the puzzles and today (Aug 27) happens to be my birthday.
