Describe the bug

Due to the telemetry the following error is thrown when users are not connected to the internet:

error uploading: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='us.i.posthog.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /batch/ (Caused by NameResolutionError("<urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x15e8bfce0>: Failed to resolve 'us.i.posthog.com' ([Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known)"))

Steps to Reproduce

This can be re-produced by just disabling your internet connection when first importing PyBaMM with telemetry enabled.

This should be a quick fix. I will upload something in an hour or so
