直訳: 今日は[一日中](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/6965/)パソコンで[作業をしてた](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/86906/)。
パソコンで何かしらの作業をする際、"be on the computer"という表現をします。
"spend the day〜" =〜して一日を過ごす。
これの過去形なのでspentになります。
②I sat in front of the computer all day
直訳: 今日は一日パソコンの前に座っていた。
"sit in front of the computer"=パソコンの前に座る
パソコンの前に座っていた=パソコンとにらめっこ。
どちらかというとネガティブなニュアンスかもしれません。

今日は[1日中](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/6965/)パソコンの[画面](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/40748/)とにらめっこしてました。
I stared at my computer screen all day.
1日中パソコンの画面を見てました。
「にらめっこ」は staring contest です。
そのままですね!
たとえば「疲れた」を強調したいのであれば、次のような言い方も良いですね。
I'm tired of having staring contests with my computer screen.
もうパソコンの画面とにらめっこするのは飽きたよ。
I'm tired from staring at my computer screen all day.
1日中パソコンの画面を見てて疲れたよ。
Both these expressions are informal. I am married to my computer is a humorous/funny way to express spending a lot of time with someone or something. Very often people are married to their jobs because they spend a lot of time working and it appears to be their number 1 relationship.
Stuck to the computer has the same meaning as glued to the computer meaning you cannot get free from the computer.
両方の表現ともにくだけた言い方です。
I am married to my computer.
パソコンと結婚した。
これは、パソコンとずっと仕事をしているという意味のユーモラスでおもしろい表現です。パソコンと向き合う時間が多すぎでナンバーワンの関係になってしまったという感じです。ほとんどの人はそういうわけではないと思いますが。
Stuck to the computer も glued to the computerと同じ意味で、パソコンから離れられないという意味です。
The literal translation is, "I stared at my computer all day." This means that you had a lot of work to do on the computer. If you have a job that makes you work on the computer all day, you could express that by saying:
I have to stare at my computer all day at work. Or, something similar to that.

Saying you have been "at" your computer shows that you have not left it/you have been dutifully working on your computer.
Being "glued" to something means that you are extremely interested in something OR stuck doing something. It is a metaphorical way of showing how busy you have been!
For example:
"I am glued to the TV when the football is on."
"I will be glued to my laptop until I have finished my homework."
“have been at computer”(パソコンの前にいる)ということは
パソコンから離れていない、あるいは、パソコンで作業している
という意味があります。
“glued”(ひっついた)というのは、
とても何かに興味がある、あるいは、何かから離れられない
という意味です。
どのくらい忙しいかを示す比喩の表現方法です。
