Looping counter
Create an infinite loop that outputs lines of asterisks, with each line containing one more asterisk. Instead of the asterisk, any printable, non-whitespace character can be used. However all lines need to use the same character.
The beginning of the output looks like this:
*
**
***
****
*****
******
*******
********
*********
**********
***********

The actual score is $5\log_{256}(96)\approx$ 4.116 bytes. The leaderboard only likes ints in the header.
(J,Q0
-1 char thanks to Seggan
Fractional byte lang created by Seggan. Is this even allowed here?
(J,Q0
,Q : Print and return last return value, initialized as 0
J 0 : Add 0 to end of result
