Using Lightroom Classic (and Photoshop) "offline" (no internet connection)

Is there a way that I can use LR Classic and Photoshop (basically my Adobe CC desktop apps) without an internet connection?  I noticed while doing some tests, LR would check for an internet connection every time I launched it and if there was no connection, it would force me to quit the apps.  Same for Photoshop.

I have an annual prepaid subscription so I would think that the apps would only need to check in periodically to see if your license is still valid or not, maybe once week, but not every time you launch the apps.  Is there a way around this?  I tend to travel to some areas where I may not have internet access but still want to be able to work in Lightroom Classic/Bridge/ACR and Photoshop while traveling.

(I seem to remember in previous versions of LR classic and PS you used to be able to use the app without a connection but it would have to check in at least every few days -- required a connection every few days, but in it seems with the latest versions, it needs to connect every time and if it can't you cannot use the apps....)
