thonny: "ssl certificate expired" trying to install Micropython firmware
I was following along with this video and tried to update my firmware using Thonny. When I clicked Install, my IDE attempts to download micropython but it fails with a “certificate expired” error.
To get around it for now, I just installed Micropython manually from the Raspberry Pi Pico Getting Started page. After launching Thonny, I was automatically connected and could run commands in the REPL and run programs using “Run current Script”, F5.
Is the SSL cert something I can fix on my end?

That’s really strange. In my Windows 10 machine I can download it without problems. Can you download from this URL directly: https://micropython.org/resources/firmware/rp2-pico-20210202-v1.14.uf2 ?
