To participate in the Lebensborn was actually a great honour to both parties, as subjects were required to be of the highest racial quality. SS men were recruited and paired with volunteer women from occupied territories (particularly Norway, but also in other Western European nations). Families received the highest quality healthcare available, as well as other perks to encourage their involvement.

The Lebensborn program was set up to help the pregnant partners of SS members and unmarried mothers, there's a huge difference between that and the stud farms you mentioned, you seem to be suggesting that the women in the occupied zones were forced into getting pregnant to breed a master race, that is called rape and I have seen no evidence to support that. In fact it's typical of the kind of nonsense I was taught in school where I was told that Hitler wanted to kill everyone who wasn't a blue eyed blonde.

It's possible, especially after 1941, that Germany would be unable to take and hold Moscow. The USSR would also have been unlikely to be able to push Germany back entirely and take Berlin if the heavy bombing of German industrial areas ever stopped and the Normandy invasion did not open a western front to draw German troops away.
It's possible at this point that there could have been a truce. Perhaps after Kursk, if the Germans had managed to halt the Soviet advance but didn't see much prospect for advancement of their own.
A likely result would have been a Russia pretty similar to the current incarnation. Japan's interests were to the south where the natural resources they needed lay, so wouldn't have had much interest in the Pacific coast, and Russia didn't really need that anyways. The USSR would have kept Moscow, southern Russia, Siberia and the hinterlands, with Germany occupying the Baltic coast, and perhaps up to Smolensk, and possibly running puppet states in Ukraine and the Caucasus.

Worse from my perspective, and I think for Austria. Hitler annexed this country to his empire and enforced uniform prussianised culture on the Austrian people. But the worse thing is the tyrrany of nazi ideology. I like a world ideologically in term of freedom more than a nazi occupied country. I don't like being told what to do every step of the way. It's not just Hitler's fault by himself, but the ideologies in general, which were obsessed with Jews and treating people who were different like subhumans. Now we fell into the other extreme, big guilt. Neither is better.

I've got no opinion, which is really how I view Hitler.

It would not be that different , there would be an uprising, but the world would not ultimately stand for it, and it would level out, or the war would continue with other countries involved and it might turn out as a democracy eventually, or maybe as the worst case scenario everyone would live in oppression and poverty still, or the war would never end (since that the National Socialism was a destructive psychopathic ideology) and people just keep killing each other endlessly, who knows.

It would ultimately usher in a consumer superficial mass-society, similar to the one we have today. Only the path and the methods would have been different.

This kind of question enters into the realm of what-if, such as "What if the Roman empire never fell?" Speculative and often the home of wishful-thinkers and idealists.
I'd rather have lived in Roman times during the golden age than in Nazi Germany, where my skull might not've been the right size and shape or my family tree not Aryan enough. The Nazis had some good ideas, but they seriously bumfucked a whole hell of a lot else.
