the question is: do you know approximately a well known plaintext from a ciphertext?

yes but no endianness, we have about 121,000 plain->cipher. Well we are not that sure that it was des or 3des:

What’s the difficulty level of brute forcing the DES key with a GPU?

i dont have a dedicated gpu its a laptop gpu (hp probook 640 g1) from 2016.

I’ll trade GPU time to brute force the key for a copy of the archive for the Internet Archive, assuming the key is of a length that can be brute forced in a reasonable amount of time.
