I'm trying to download a file (a discord profile picture to be precise) using the Discord API to get the URL. however, the wget module in python returns a 403 forbidden. I would edit the source of the wget module, but don't know where the source is.

    Why wget? Why not requests? Much more straightforward. Commented Jul 2, 2017 at 12:57
