lol My new Carbon printed it's way through two rolls of 7 year old PLA last week and it's doing fine with the equally old ABS (all Hatchbox). I also have one old roll of PLA and a couple of PETG that are less useful, but they were no-name stuff that were troublesome new and are at least partially to blame for me giving up on printing back then.
Still, it's nice to see 3d printing is finally not too finicky to tolerate. With this machine, if I get a failure, it's a lot easier to narrow down the cause.
