I specifically bought mine for this very reason!
Roborock S5 Max.
Its an older model - and it has all the connectivity / WiFi crap in it - but if you never sync it to the app in the first place (or allow it WiFi access), it works fine with local LIDAR and off line mode.
Good vac; recommended.
PS: I can't believe they called that app Valetudo (I get it - Hygieia). Just..that word has a very different meaning in many folks brains

It's the robot vs the dirt, a fight to the death, or at least unconsciousness or a hospital trip! 🤣
I feel like I remember hearing about an event or series called Valetudo in like, the middle east or something, back in the 90s around like, UFC 1-3 timeframe. Where like, Rickson did the majority of his fighting as far as I understood/remember. I didn't know until today it was a catchall term! I remember my buddy telling me about how absolutely legendary Rickson was and how it was such a shame all we had in the UFC was Royce, lol. I think I only ever saw him fight once, in Pride I'd guess... likely against Sakuraba (but I'm guessing and scraping the memory banks hard here.)
Edit: AH, just looked it up, it was Takada ... a judo expert iirc ... yes, some of the cobwebs shaking loose now! And the "Vale Tudo" I'd heard about was a thing, but it wasn't in the middle east, it was Japan it seems! Probably confusing it with something else that was in the middle east.
Your memory is not bad :)
The middle east thing was likely ADCC. The Japan thing was likely PRIDE, NHB or Lumax Cup. Many different promotions before UFC ate em up back then.
You'd love these I think

Looks neat!!
For some reason I think I thought this was about a boxer or something... I don't keep up on much that isn't IMAX 70mm. After hitting IMDB, I'm almost more interested in the original HBO documentary!
I'll grab all three and see how many I can convince the mrs' to watch with me, ty!! :-)
Perfect! Thank you!
