Better error handling when no internet available #31

Feature Request

Description of feature: Handle missing connection errors gracefully.

Rationale for feature: The functions that use requests will propagate connection errors, while this may not always be desired. For example, it can skip checking for updates if the internet is down, instead of throwing a connection error.
