Shouldn’t the recent thread about SOCKS proxy apply here and
make the extra torsocks program redundant?
(This precisely is why I asked about DNS in the context of
SOCKS, as I vaguely recall that Tor has something resolving
of its own for those .onion addresses and otherwise hides
the DNS requests through the Tor network as well, but for
that, the proxy must be used for *both* resolving addresses
and retrieving content, not just the latter.)

<diogenese> Beware of ritual lest you forget the meaning behind it.
<igli> yeah but it means if you really care about something, don't
ritualise it, or you will lose it. don't fetishise it, don't
obsess. or you'll forget why you love it in the first place.
