Nemesis Easter Egg (sort of)

There is a small logo and text written on top of the wing of the Nemesis which says:

donec viverra sodales magna
donec dapibus, lorem ut
molestie facilisi (or faucibus)
lorem massa eleifend orci

This words are from the Lorem ipsum text which graphic designers use as a placeholder Big smile, which itself is a sort of cut down passage from On the ends of good and evil.

Was the guy who made the textures just lazy or did he want to tell us more?
Here is an (automated) translation Shocked:

while/until ferret comrade great/mighty
while/until sacrificial feast pain in order to
trouble items (or throat)
pain burden eleifend underworld

Decide for yourself .......

What do you mean by designers use it as a placeholder?

There's nothing worse than an EVE player, generally considered to be top of the food chain in the MMO world, that cannot smacktalk with wit and coherency.

Its basically any non-sensical text inserted in a "form" layout as a placeholder.

"Classic" Lorem Ipsum example

Baconipsum

Bacon ipsum dolor sit amet meatloaf dolore fugiat, ad flank t-bone pariatur aliquip anim ham sed shankle tenderloin labore corned beef. Pig flank sint, ullamco minim shankle ball tip strip steak voluptate anim occaecat ground round. Sunt pariatur chicken prosciutto. Sunt pork belly ham hock, ground round et jerky venison fatback ham.

And my favorite: Samuel L. Slipsum ipsum generator!:

Samuel L. Jacksoned:

I'm serious as a heart attack. Do you see any Teletubbies in here? Do you see a slender plastic tag clipped to my shirt with my name printed on it? Do you see a little Asian child with a blank expression on his face sitting outside on a mechanical helicopter that shakes when you put quarters in it? No? Well, that's what you see at a toy store. And you must think you're in a toy store, because you're here shopping for an infant named Jeb.
