It turns out the ASCII string got truncated	by monika_krug	2014-05-18 03:34:33
There is a 00000000 byte and that apparently caused it to be cut off. I posted the same question in the xkcd forum and someone noticed it: "The linked data actually contains all 256 possible 8 bit patterns, but the 181st pattern in the stream decodes as a NUL byte. And I guess that whatever you're using to do your analysis decided that that was a \0 terminator byte at the end of the data. Oops!"
