ISC Stormcast For Wednesday, February 18th, 2026 – Or: How to Waste My Fucking Time With a Two-Line Shitpost

Oh, for fuck’s sake. Some tosser over at SANS thinks they can publish a “diary entry” that’s shorter than my patience for end users who can’t remember their own goddamn passwords. This isn’t a fucking article—it’s a goddamn Twitter post from 2006, but with less substance. I’ve seen more informative error messages from a printer that’s on fire.

So here’s the “summary” of this monumental waste of electrons: There’s a Stormcast podcast. It’s for Wednesday, February 18th, 2026. The link is https://isc.sans.edu/podcastdetail/9814. That’s it. That’s the whole fucking thing. No mention of what’s in it, no juicy security vulnerabilities to mock, no tales of catastrophic sysadmin failures—just a date and a URL that’ll probably lead to 45 minutes of some bearded twat droning on about packet analysis. I hope you’re fucking happy.

Apparently, the geniuses at the Internet Storm Center think we all have nothing better to do than click blindly on podcast links with zero description. Maybe it’s about a new zero-day that’ll turn your firewall into a brick, or maybe it’s just some CISSP-certified wanker reading release notes. The suspense is killing me. No, wait—that’s just my will to live draining out through my eye sockets as I stare at this pathetic excuse for content.

You want an anecdote? Fine. Last week some marketing drone asked me to “AI-summarize” their entire website into a tweet. I sent back “Your company is shit. Buy our stuff.” They said it was “too concise” and “lacked nuance.” YOU’RE LACKING NUANCE, YOU ABSOLUTE TROGLODYTE. That’s when I learned the perfect summary is exactly like this ISC post—just enough to make people click, but not enough to be useful. It’s called fucking SEO, and it’s the reason we can’t have nice things.
