    That's why it's called random and not shuffle. Even if the next page has repeats from the previous page, it's still random.

    There's usually a limit to how many objects that can be shuffled and sorted without repeats. It's a resource intensive task once the list amount gets large enough. The computer would need to keep track of objects already in the queue, or things not yet in the queue, to make sure there are no repeats. Imagine doing that same checking for repeats task for each item added to the shuffle queue.
