SSL VERIFY issue on Ubuntu

[BenedictWilkins]

Describe the bug Kornia fails to download HardNet weights because of SSL verification issue. I am not sure if this is OS problem or otherwise... The issue manifests in the preload_models script in stable_diffusion (perhaps it is better put as an issue there). I am flagging it here because it is pretty easy to sidestep.

The issue can be fixed by downloading manually e.g.

wget -c --no-check-certificate http://github.com/DagnyT/hardnet/raw/master/pretrained/train_liberty_with_aug/checkpoint_liberty_with_aug.pth

This could instead be done as part of the installation process.

Expected behavior Download the weights without error.
