These words come from Lorem Ipsum, dummy text used by graphic designers to showcase a font or typeset, rather than distract the reader with the text itself. It looks like Latin because it comes from De Finis Bonorum Et Malorum ("on the limits of good and evil"), one of Cicero's most lengthy works of Latin literature. Some of the words may be true to the original Latin, but it is designed to say nothing as many of... Source: 12 months ago

I bet it was lost in translation. Looks like a copypasta from https://lipsum.com/. The reference to not just PageMaker, but Aldus PageMaker is a clue to how long it's been around.

Yeah it's dummy/greeking text. You can read all about it here: https://lipsum.com/ it has a fascinating history. Source: about 1 year ago

Also fun fact, you can generate it on sites like this. Source: about 1 year ago

Isn’t https://wormhole.app/ the solution here? Note I haven’t used it, it’s just often brought up here as a good solution for this class of problem. Is it surprising that the author mentions a ton of solutions but not this one? - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

One of the two creators of https://wormhole.app here :) Now that we’ve shifted our company’s focus to https://socket.dev, I’d love to open source Wormhole.

It’s just a matter of finding the time, but I expect this will be open source eventually. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

It's unfortunately not FOSS, but I quite like https://wormhole.app/ - It's client side encrypted and P2P when possible. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
