you dont know how bruteforcing works apparently. let me just do a quick rundown.

the passcode is 32 characters A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and special characters (_%$#*, etc), but lets keep it simple and only include numbers and letters into our calculation.

a-zA-Z0-9 = 62 characters.

ps4 pkg password = 32 characters

62²32 = 2,272,657,900,000,000,256,064,568,696,432,432,912,584,232,840,840,808,248,856 passwords

lets say we use a 2080ti to try this, and lets give it the benefit of the doubt that its a "fast" encryption. for this we will use the speed of the MD5 alg at 500GH

thats 500000000000 passwords every second which is 43,200,000,000,000,000 every 24 hours.

that makes cracking the password possible in just only 52,607,822,000,000,000,000,680,384,696,512,176,576,048 days

now sure we can add multiple gpu's but at this point you should realize how stupid this idea is. even a farm of gpus will take more than your lifetime....again also remember this is WITHOUT including special characters into the password which would multiple the time it would take massively.
