Succulent ID confirmation help requested. PlantNet is showing this as a probable Echeveria canto and a possible Dudleya pulverulenta. I think it is more likely a Dudleya (very thin and very chalky leaves that are tough to remove). This one is at least 3-4 years old and I had to split it today into two parts (I accidentally knocked it off the shelf a couple of years ago and you can see in the second photo where it has been trying to separate).

@chillicampari @plants I seem to remember Dudleya flowers stem from the bottom part of the rosette, while Echeveria ones from the top and that's a semi-reliable way to tell them apart.

I just searched for it to make sure, and this page agrees: https://davesgarden.com/guides/articles/view/2318
