As far as I know, cracking 3DES is still not trivial, and requires a very large number of operations and/or a very large amount of data. But can just about be done in some situations.
If you have any link to trivially cracking it on your second hand laptop and doing it at scale, would be very interested.
Mea culpa! I must have had a brain fart and added the 3 in there. My sincere apologies!
Of course I can't find the link to whatever I read that discussed gpu accelerated des cracking now.
Phew, thought I'd missed an important development there! The 3 makes the difference :)
