Oh this is delightful!
x86 assembly isn't something I'm familiar with (and I should really get back to $dayjob), but I will mention the existence of emoji-test.txt [1] in case somebody wants to try and mine more executable sequences. It might be worth paying attention to the minimally-qualified, unqualified and component lines, which can be added and removed semi freely. No idea if they actually correspond to useful byte sequences.
Waiting for someone to an emoji-x86 backend to LLVM/GCC.

For this to be reproducible the browser version is going to need to be specified.

I don't see why that would matter. Sure, it was noticed on a browser but ultimately this article is about overlap between x86 assembly and a subset of the unicode standard. The browser isn't really involved.

It does look like a good "works on my machine" proof-of-concept, but are you going to copy those emoji from something other than a browser?
Probably wouldn't hurt to specify the text editor too and settings needed to match the intended file size as well.
