(Repeated) kernel panic on Macbook Air/Chrome I'm afraid.
Can you post OS and browser versions along with the hardware revision? That sounds bad.

#42This is very cool, but when running it on Chrome 13 beta it was extremely choppy and basically locked up my PC. It took 2 minutes to move my mouse to the "close tab" button.

#44I've been working on this for a couple weeks, attempting to get it looking perfect and get it to 1kb. It's going to be going on stage at http://solskogen.no/ shortly, so I figured now is the perfect time to post. As far as I know, this is the first ever case of a self-extracting PNG -- the file is a PNG that first is interpreted as HTML, which then unpacks the compressed code within the PNG to start the second stage.…
Daeken... you are, as usual, nothing short of amazing. Never fail to amaze :)

#45Right-click and choose "view image" hangs firefox on a mac osx sl.

#46Aside: anyone know why Chrome doesn't release the memory after the page is exited? Looking at Chrome's stats for nerds (about:memory) I still see 57k allocated to GPU Process.

#47Earlier quoted context omitted.
It depends on what you use to report CPU usage. Many monitoring tools stick with 100%/core, but some normalize it.
Good point. I believe Windows' task manager reports it the way I said, while OS X's Activity Monitor reports each core up to 100%.
In general, *nixes report 100% capacity per core, not just OS X.

#50So, it the header makes it look like a PNG: magister.html: PNG image data, 1242 x 1, 8-bit grayscale, non-interlaced If you look at this in an image viewer, it's as advertised: a long black bar. So what this is is some garbage data with a PNG header, a token PNG image, and some HTML that bootstraps a javascript program whose main body looks like binary garbage. But it's not a self-extracting PNG, it's a very strange…
You were right up until saying it was garbage data. The image data is the demo code itself. This is a real PNG, even if it looks random.
Even so, I think this is more of a Polyglot than a self extracting PNG.
