How to Save Mac Screenshots in Another Folder

Tonight I stumbled on youserials.com. My previous go-to source for serials and keys, Serialz.to, disappeared a few months ago.

Youserials.com is great if you have the Adblock Plus extension running in Firefox. Otherwise they overlay a javascript ad over pages that show serial numbers, trying to lock in you into some advertising garbage. One would hope that anyone who knows enough to find serial numbers would know, or at least try a workaround for this sign-up junk. See the screenshot below.



If you don't want to install Adblock Plus, one of the best Firefox extensions, there's still a work-around, but you'll have to put-up with the ads. Navigate to a page that has serial numbers, then go to View > Page Source in the Firefox menu bar. You can also press Control-U or Command-U on a Mac. Once the page source window opens, scroll down until you see the serial number listed. Copy and paste the serial number.
