Show HN: Faster-than-light ping (April Fools')

A server that replies to your pings faster than ever! Now with IPv6 support. Give it a minute and the response time will go down tremendously:

    ping ftlping.net

On Windows, add an option not to stop after 4 pings:

    ping -t ftlping.net

Works best on MacOS and FreeBSD. Not impressive on Windows but you can see something interesting if you run a packet analyser.
