From the blog post
obtaining an ARIN ASN and a portable /24 IPv4 block for a home networkI’ve wanted my own Internet address space for a long time. Not “my ISP gave me some statics” space which I’ve had for well over a decade now, but a block that belongs to me, announced into the global routing table by equipment I own, and ideally sitting in the rack in my house. Type the prefix into bgp.tools and see my own ASN sitting there as the origin. How cool! (ok, cool for some, but not most)
I did this back in the 00s, got the /24 immediately. Wish I’d kept it going today.
bot account with weird LLM-generated comments… ?
Does any comment that's properly formatted look like a bot to you?
Also worth noting for most readers: you get 95% of the fun (your own ASN visible in bgp.tools, learning BGP hands-on) by renting a cheap VPS from providers that offer BGP sessions on a /48 or even a /24 you lease monthly. Owning the /24 outright is mainly for the permanence.
Isn’t permanence one of the major goals if you start that road at all?
Cheap fun never lasts.

Title: I Got My Own AS Number. Here’s: What It Took
I skimmed over your posted blog. Reads like a somewhat same process.
Literally “Same, same but different” ^^
Grateful for my blessings and blessed to give back, I’m giving 35 grand to anyone who messages “GRACE” on Telegram @Georgestones12, I understand that many people are struggling with bills, and I want to help reduce that burden. It’s a season of love, kindness, and blessings.

How in the hell are you already using almost 126 public IPs?? Surely you condense some of those services? That must cost more than you like…

The arr stack alone is 8-12 IPs. Basic net stack is 3-6. Servers, personal devices, IoT…shit adds up.

Reverse proxy my friend…
Using one static IP per service feels so much like … 1990s…
… As well as owing a /24, I admit.

Not sure why most of the arr stack would even need public IPs?
B0rax@feddit.org 15 hours ago
The are stack should not be public… there should at most be one public ip for that.

Wait what? Is you serious?
