people who say things like "ad infinitum" are pretentious douchebags

   Here you go
   
   Go to http://www.quitebasic.com/
   
   Enter this (slightly altered version for their version of basic) in the basic program window
   
   10 For A= 1 to 1000 step 1
   20 Print ": picard : x";A
   30 Next A
   40 Input "Do you want to continue Ad Infinitum?";B$
   60 If B$="yes" then goto 10
   70 Stop
   
   Hit the Play button/symbol
   
   When the box pops up be sure to enter "yes" (lowercase) and continue to do so, let me know when it stops repeating itself...

   it took a fraction of a second lol. the question is "Do you want to continue Ad Infinitum?" if i answer that question with "yes", it iterates 10 more times, not ad infinitum
   
   10 is not equal to infinity

   Nice,
   
   Here's one I built using an empty C64 case, Raspberry PI running Combian64, a Powerblock + Keyrah V2 board.

   Lol I understand the sentiment but beauty in language is its own end. You might as well get mad at writers for using big words.

   No one said it was...(and I edited it to 1000).
   
   continually repeating 10 (or 1000) by entering "yes" though is ad infinitum...
   
   Did the penny drop yet?

    Lololol
    
    If you want to automate it just remove line 40 to 70 and add line 50 goto 10.
    
    There, ad infinitum...forever...

    yet despite the simplicity you didn't do it. is it because you don't understand the concept of infinity?

    It's too bad that there isn't a way to play scrabble online, instantly, with people from all across the globe. How cool would that be?

    Not cool. 🤨I like the board games and in person interaction so that it's easier to cheat! 😊

    See the thread topic, it's not about infinity, it's about ad infinitum.
    
    x infinity.

    Well no, it's easier to cheat at scrabble if you are not there in person, you can have a dictionary sitting right next to you.
